Periodontist appointment happening.

So, the other week I went in for a periodontist appointment and was sitting around in the waiting room waiting to be called.

“[My first name]?”, an assistant said eventually, and not only me got up, but so did this guy in a chair a few seats away.

“Okay, what’s your last name?”, the assistant was like, and after I said my last name, she was like, “Okay, come with me.”

In the little dental lab work room, she said that that happens every so often, that two people waiting have the same first name, but she legally can’t say the last name, and so she has to ask the two confused people to volunteer that information.
