I get some random emails every week, like earlier this week I received a complete landscaping proposal for “my garden”, it had a detailed project plan and everything. Today’s email is from a doctor, actually it’s his out of office message, and it goes something like this
I am out of the office until October 13, 2009.
For refill requests and other clinical concerns, please call (617)XXX-XXX and listen for the prompts.
In case of emergency, please go to your local emergency room or dial 911. For urgent clinical matters call the hospital operator.
What I find strange is the fact that the doctor needs to tell people that they shouldn’t email him in an emergency. Which probably means people do so on a regular basis ! Crazy !
