Epilogue to Adventures at the VA

When I got home from the VA, I checked my email. The following email is from Old Fat Guy who interviewed me and set up my physical; it was cc'd to Karen, my area coordinator and all the interns:

Employee Health advised that you are not allowed to bring children when
coming for the physical. Those who are not scheduled, please contact me
as soon as possible. I had earlier left phone messages and also sent a
separate email to you in this regard.
Thanks

First, what a liar. I did not receive an email nor voice mail saying not to bring your children. What I think: He's now Weasel-Dick Cover Your Ass Guy. This was my reply to my coordinator, Karen, only:

In regards to the email sent about children not being allowed to attend the physical: I was not told of a no child policy in the phone call that I received late yesterday afternoon about an appointment at 8:30am today. Also, I didn't receive an email. I didn't think to ask as my children usually go to all of my doctor appointments with me. They allowed me to complete the physical anyway, so I am not sure what this email means. This makes me feel a little funny because it seems like someone complained about me bringing my children with me and then this email was sent so that it looks like I disregarded information or procedures and that is not what happened. I just wanted to let you know I did not disregard any information.
Thanks,

I was feeling very emotional yesterday and it made me cry, mostly with frustration that someone would lie about such a stupid thing and also that my children being with me is some sort of faux pas. My children aren't loud burps or embarrassing flatulence, they're cute little kids that I like to have around and are pretty funny. Oh well, some people suck.
