One day, we were visited by an upper echelon type from Washington, DC and, in the subsequent staff meeting, he asked if anyone had any suggestions. I replied that we should do away with the waiting area and schedule clients so that they would be seen on arrival. He asked why, and I replied that most of what was going on in the waiting area was people discussing how to beat the system. Those were the day; those were the ways. Greetings:
