Hurry up and wait for tomorrow

bktheirregularSet my alarm for 6:45 this morning so I could be at a hospital at 8:00 to get TB tests done for my work permit. (I was actually awake at 4:45, but that's only relevant to my mental state at the moment.) Caught the metro out to the hospital, went over to where my appointment was scheduled, and waited.
And waited.
Eight o'clock came and went. Half an hour later, the word came: doctors on strike. No tests today. Come back tomorrow.
I asked if I could get that in writing, and was rebuffed. The security guard told me that she'd be on duty there tomorrow as well, so I should just come back tomorrow.
So, a morning shot to no good purpose (except that being awake so early, I was able to hang my laundry up to dry). And no guarantee that there won't be more of the same tomorrow.
