I just give up [View all]

Trying for 30 minutes to schedule a dermatology appointment because a mole on my face that the doc told me couple of years ago to watch has now erupted and is growing like a weed.

Telephone. Listen to the announcement, press 2, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, HANG UP

Try their website. Online chat with a robot. Enter cell number, enter date of birth, they send 4-digit code to cell, enter that in the online chat, how can I help you, enter "I need an appointment with Dr. XXXX", "Thank you, we will contact you.

Three hours later, no contact.

Try the phone again. Same non-response.

Maybe if I pull the .40 caliber pistol out of my truck and shoot myself in the face someone will look at me. Next week if I'm lucky.
