@Doephin Heh. Try telling a Canadian doctor's office "I'll pay for a second visit, same day, with cash." You can *hear* gears strip in their minds. "You.. What. You? You aren't supposed to VOLUNTEER to do that!! I don't think we even CAN do that!!!" Takes a lot to shock a medical receptionist: I felt accomplished. n.n
(It was a complicated situation at the time, and rather frustrating. Funny now, tho.)
