First there was simple theft. (“Give me your lunch money!”) Then there was identity theft. (“I’m Mr. Magoo. Give me a loan.”) Apparently things have escalated. Now there is appointment theft. It’s true, I tell ya.
The phone rang. We have caller ID so I knew it was the vet’s office. “Hmmm, that’s odd,” I thought as I picked up the phone. “Nicky isn’t due for shots or anything.”
The receptionist says, “You had an appointment today at 1:30.”
“Uh, not that I know of.”
“Yeah, I have it right down here that Nicky was supposed to come in to get his rear leg checked.”
“He’s fine. He has nothing wrong with his leg. I never made any appointment.”
“I guess that explains why you missed the appointment.”
So who is impersonating me and why are they making vet appointments? What’s next on their agenda – an appointment for a colonoscopy?
You shouldn’t have gotten Nicky that iphone.
Does Nicky have a drug problem? Looking for the vet to give him some pain pills?
that Nicky…one talented dog…now if he could only open the fridge
Doggy negligence is bad. I know you dream of being dogless every now and then, but skipping the poor pup’s medical care is wrong!
JUST KIDDING!
On a similar note, my mom’s prostate checked out just fine. You’d think the nurse would have noticed she was calling somebody with a CLEARLY FEMALE name, but apparently not. Either that or my mom is hiding a big secret.
