Leah and I finally got off our collective asses and booked an appointment with the doctor for an examination. This is of course for our Green Card application, and we have to have chest x-ray and may be vaccinations if we can’t prove we have them. Well, we managed to get all these done in just under 3 hours and that included going from the doctor office to another place for the x-ray and back. I can’t really imagine this happening if we were in the UK and have to endure the NHS. I can just see it now; 3 months to arrange an appointment, a whole day just to get vaccination (sorry immunizations), and another month before getting x-ray.

I guess money greases the wheels huh?

I am sure some of you knew and experienced this already but I am going to moan and bitch anyway. Just had a day full of meetings and tomorrow is another similarly set out day. To my manager I am sure that will look like I am working my ass off to move the project forward. In some sense I am but really I have achieved absolutely nothing today, and expecting the same for tomorrow.

Is this the price for moving up the career ladder? I certainly hope not.
