My Dad Bribed an Entire Surgery Staff Today (Wholesome Story)

So my Dad was having an outpatient surgery today to remove some cataracts. Nothing major. My mother and I had been discussing how we could get him there, who was going to take him back to the house after, etc. They live about an hour away. After everything was scheduled, turned out all I had to do was sit in the waiting room for three hours or so while he was undergoing the procedure.

Office policy required a family member to be on the premises throughout the time they were pre surgery, during and post in case something happens.

So, I get there about 11 and my Dad motions me over, "Son, I need you to do something for me. These ladies have not had lunch. I need you to head to Chick Fil A and get lunch for 9 people and bring it back."

So, I did. Now, my Dad is a really nice man, and he does stuff like this all the time, but he's also canny.

He knows that if the staff starts rotating out from 11:30 to 1 to take lunch while he's in the back it's going to take longer for him to get out of there, and he HATES hospitals and waiting rooms.

So for $85 bucks in chicken nuggets, fries, sweet tea and lemonade, the old man convinced a whole staff to skip leaving for lunch so he could get out an hour or so faster.

And the did rush him through. Supposed to be out by 3 and went home at 1:30.

That old man makes me shake my head sometimes.
