Today I traveled

Today I traveled with Audrey to Chapel Hill to take her dental instruments to UNC.  Tomorrow we will travel again at 5 am so that she can once again take her state clinical exam to become a Dental Hygenist.
Let me tell you what is wrong with our world today....Like I said we drove all the way to UNC  just to drop off her instruments.  We could have taken them with us tomorrow, they need to be sterilized before use on her patient.  She could have done it here at Forysth Tech, but no, somebody somewhere decided that UNC is the only place this can be done. Tomorrow we leave at 4:45 am to pick up a patient that she just met Thursday, this is one reason we are going with her. His name is Mohammad, Mo for short, Audrey says he seems nice, but in today's world who knows.  After we pick him up we drive once again to UNC, because Audrey has to be inside the doors no later that 7 am or she gets locked out and loses her money for the exam.  Once there, she has about 40 minutes of paper work to do, so her patient just has to sit and wait.  After they tell her she can start she has 1 hr and 1/2 to clean on four teeth. She received an automatic zero the first time because she cleaned teeth around the ones they would be examining, which she found out later she was not suppose to do. It is amazing when you fail because of being thorough. After his 4 teeth are cleaned the judges will come in and make the decision on whether she passes or not.  Now let me tell you what is wrong with this whole thing and why goverment really doesn't care about me and you.
First she wasted gas for 2 trips to chapel hill, she had to take off from work, she has to find her own patient and pay them to go with her. The problem with finding your own patient, you don't really know until you get to Chapel Hill, if they will except your patient. Plus, you can only clean 4 of their teeth, how stupid is this.  You have criteria to following but in the end, they have the final say, you just hope and pray. The college can not help you in your decisions on patients and they can't give you advise. It cost $1,300.00 to take the exam, if you fail, you have to pay again $1,300.00.  Why wouldn't some fail, it creates revenue....
As you can tell, we in our household, believe without a shadow of doubt that this country is run by people who have never lived a  life among the average people.  They have never really had to work or sacrifice for what they have.  If they did they have completely been blinded by power and money and can't remember their own image in the mirror.
We know Audrey will be a great dental hygenist, she loves what she does, now we just pray for a passing grade so she can get a real job.....
