Episode 11.5: Job Description...

Does anyone esle have to remove creepy crawlies before he sees them. Or better yet the surgery is in the grounds of the house and the previous dentist had a pool built. Guess who has to remove the frog that got caught in the cylinder pipe or the hedgehog that fell in the pool or the dead pigeon that hit the water or better yet the bat that his cats brought it. Its like working for the RSPCA.

actually its going that extra mile, that gives you favor in the dentist eyes...well unless he is blind folded.......

Im sure they'd be more than happy if we said yeah sure i'll do the grass cutting.
But boys it aint gonna happen cos im a DENTAL NURSE not a Gardener!!!

Silly boys

Hahaha he makes a joke about you mowing the grass...he is probably half seious, knowing dentists!

The trouble is my dentist laughs so loudly at his own jokes that I have to put on a really loud laugh aswell...I dont know how he doesn't realise its fake haha.

absolutely true

lol, i am loving this list, its totally true!!

Laughing at the bad joke that seems to be seasonal
"if you're loking for something to do, you could always get on the sit on mower and do the grass!"

How about no, its not my job to do the bloody grass cutting!!

If my boss tells me to do something like book train tickets I tell him I am a dental nurse not his wife or a PA. He just tells me that if I look very closely at the bottom of my contract it says I am to do anything he tells me to.

I don't see any point in DN's having a job description, seeing how we are expected to do EVERYTHING at a wim whilst doing a back flip...

Definately!!!
