Colleague:
(Stating the oh-so-famous phrase) ...So if you can put your chin on the chin-rest, and head right against that bar please...
Patient:
Has this been cleaned?
Colleague:
Sorry?!
Patient:
This chin-rest...has it been cleaned?
Colleague:
Um, errr...I can't guarantee that it has...um...
(Of course it hadn't been cleaned...at uni we can actually lose marks in an exam for not cleaning the machines before a patient...but in the real world everyone forgets!)
Patient:
well I'd like it cleaned....please.
Colleague walks past me, makes a what-a-cow face, and goes into the toilets. Seconds later she returns with a roll of toilet paper(!).... I try very hard not to laugh...
Patient is obviously not impressed...
Patient:
For a nationally recognised company you should really take more care with hygiene.
Colleague:
Um...yeh...

That's unbelievable! On the dental clinic if you even think abou doing something as heinous as scratching your nose with your gloved hand, a coven of nurses descend on you and make you change them! I though opticianalists (yes, technical term) would be the same. I side with the patient!
(Plus I like the smell of the alcohol wipes... hehe)
We now have alcohol wipes at work! Wooo!...
That's enough excitement...lol
I totally agree too...it's disgusting putting your face on summat that's been covered with umpteen people's make up!
(why did I reply over a month later?.... I'm a busy woman o.k! :D )
