The last person you expect to mess up is usually the first to

So.. real stressful last few hours... and it's going to be a tense weekend.

I called Dr. Hargroder's office earlier today to see if they ever got our psych evals. Robin wasn't in yet so the secretary said they'd call me back.

I got a call around 3:00, apparently yesterday was our "cut off" day, and they never got the psych evals. Robin, the lady in charge of making sure everything is turned in on time, was kind enough to give us until 5pm today (october 15'th) to get the psych evals in. So I called our psychiatrist.

Her: "Hello."
Me: "Hi Lauren! It's Elizabeth Hoadley, I got a call from Dr. Hargroder's offi-"
Her: "I'll call Dr. Hargroder."
Me: "..Alright. Yesterday was our cut off date, and they need it by today."
Her: "I'll call his office now, bye." *click*
Me: "Alright.. bye."


I waited an hour and called the Doc's office and got the very tolerant secretary. I asked if she'd heard anything and she hadn't. She asked Robin if Robin had heard anything... she hadn't. I explained that I had called the psychiatrist and gave her the low down. Robin was generous enough to say she would accept the letters on Monday.

So frustrated. We gave her $500, she had guarantee that they'd have it on time, only for her to NOT do her job.
