The Waiting Room Has a Fishy System

Panel 1: A patient notices the fish tank’s orderly line. “I didn’t know the fish had appointments.”

Panel 2: The goldfish points proudly to a tiny ticket dispenser. “We keep things moving.”

Panel 3: The patient checks a ticket while the fish advances the queue. “I’m number twelve.”

Panel 4: The patient asks, “Can I have a clipboard too?” The goldfish checks its list: “Of course. That moves you to thirteen.”

This is an original work of fictional comedy.
