We probably do better than dentists. ("gum gardeners")

At least our customers just don't know what they want; theirs straight up lie about what they do.




Dentists work 4 days a week.

They have a quiet chuckle.


I expect accountants get lied to more than dentists.


Accountants don't ask everyone they see whether they've been flossing.


maybe dentists wouldn't be lied to if they could actually tell if you floss or not. i always start flossing 2 weeks before my biannual cleaning and consistently receive glowing reviews from dentists on my dental hygiene.

feels like the whole thing is a racket
