Throwing
a Tantrum Over a Cheap Dental Plan
Twenty
seven year old Ryan Reynolds is elated that he finally got the
first prize that he ever won in his life – a cheap dental
plan.
Having
suffered too long from bad teeth and bad breath, he's more than
glad to know he's finally got the solution to his woes. But on
his first trip to the dentist, he got shocked. The dentist was
not on his cheap dental plan's network.
It
was actually his fault that he didn't check if the dentist was
on the network, but it didn't stop Ryan from throwing a tantrum
inside the clinic. Evie, the woman at the desk, was covering her
nose as he ranted.
"You
tell me I can't get a cleaning? I worked hard to win this cheap
dental plan and you tell me I can't use it?"
[Still
covering her nose.] "Well, you can get a cleaning, sir. But
you'll have to pay the full fees because we're not on the network
of your cheap dental plan."
"I
don't care if you're not on the network of my cheap dental plan.
I just want my cleaning NOW!"
[Still
covering her nose.] "So you're going to pay $100 for that?"
"Hell,
no. I won this cheap dental plan and I want to use it."
Evie,
still covering her nose, widened her eyes as she said, "If
you want to use a cheap dental plan, you can. But not from the
company that gave you your cheap dental plan. Ain't no such thing
as a free lunch, cheapskate. If you want good service, you're
going to have to pay for it." Ryan fell silent and, after
a few long seconds, stared long and hard at his cheap dental plan
card. He looked at Evie's covering of her nose.
He
covered his mouth as he began to speak. "So you're not on
the network of my cheap dental plan?"
Evie
nodded, still covering her nose.
He
continued, "So, where do I get the cheap dental plan that
I can use on you?"
"Cheap-Dental-Insurance.com.
You can actually get a cheap dental plan from them on-line."
