Yeah, from my experience in Asia it's much easier....you just fork over a bunch of cash and everyone's happy.

I agree with fotze though. WTF is going on? I sit in the same wait area for 3 hours, go to the holding cell to wait a bit more, see my doc for 5 minutes, and leave to the same people in the wait area. Is there a code red everytime I go in? People dying? Are the nurses getting shagged?

I'm not upset at it, I'm just kind of curious.
