FANTASTIC. COULD I GET YOU TO OPEN A LITTLE WIDER?

TJ has made himself an appointment to come and see me for a dental checkup, and I have been given permission to do whatever I feel is necessary.

I work for Dr Evil, and therefore we are heiniously expensive, and all my figures get monitored, so I can't discount anything, not even for family. (I do try to do things for free every now and then for some people. I worry that working for him makes me evil by association.)

Dr Evil's practice is also not even in Sydney. I work in Mullet Country.

He must really like me.

I bet Dr. Evil works on his family and friends for free or cheaper though.

Actually, his children get their work done for free, for obvious reasons, but he does charge his parents and friends the full fee.

Wow, what a nice guy. Everyone needs a friend like that (not)!

do you mean "mullet country" as in referring to the popular yet heinous hairstyle that emerged during the late eighties and peaked during the early nineties? either way, it doesn't sound like fun.

i had a boss like that in new york (same boss who never used rubber dam for endo and when i asked her to supply me with some gave me a roll of expired latex from when she graduated 1992!) she charged her staff full price for (crappy) work, even after paying them peanuts with little or no benefits, which in the states is huge because there is no socialized medicine. it's like "hey, let me take all of the little to no money i pay you, and then some, and you better save up because you just might need to see a specialist when i'm through with you..." my other old boss, well, he didn't do _that_ great a job on me (i had to have an RCT that he did retreated recently and my crown gets crap stuck in it all the time - ameloblast, you'll hear all about that one) but at least he didn't charge me.

pretty convenient that her hubby was an oral surgeon, no?

Dr. Mommy, don't worry. I'll show you how to use a toothbrush and floss.

Mullet - as in the haircut favoured previously by Billy Ray Cyrus and Michael Bolton.

Sounds like my ex boss. I gave him the middle finger and left.
