My personal reasons for hating China Labs

[Pronto]

We have a doctor that associtates with one of our accounts. He also had associated with a different office that we have for an account. He doesn't want to own his own practice for some reason. Anyway, we get a call the other day from him. He's got a case from a different office that he also works for that needs a contact between to crowns. My boss says OK we'll do it. We get the case in and it's a pick-up impression with the 2 crowns. I make the model and we look at the teeth. Big gap between the crowns, about 2 business cards thick. They were wicked light so we figured they were np which they were. The margins were thick to hide the black oxide. Overall the porcelain color was pretty good but the contours were not right. Very straight and anglular. While we're working on the case, my boss gets a call from the doctor. He was calling from the office he did the work at. We look at the caller id and guess who it is? None other than the office of my cousin's chinalab owner prosthazzhole husband. That's right, our account also associates with HIM. He goes on to tell my boss that the lab that did the work is owned by the prick. He didn't want to send it back because it would have taken too long. He's got no clue we know the whole story and they're china crowns. Oh, and he told my boss, the prothazzhole is trying to get BU and Harvard to send to his chinalab too. Ain't life grand?
We charged him double for the fix....

Since you know this Dentists ugly ways are there any really good Labs in in China or Asia?

Look at Dentsply.....(PriDent)

They own two jets and an airport in China, if I'm not mistaken.

Does that answer your question?

If ya can't beat it.......

Little labs pop up that steal from Prident, and are ex-employees.
The Chinese govn't prob wants to own a similar business and keep ALL the profit. So Dentsply better watch their step!

This business sucks sometimes!

Support America and go out of business? Join the CAD/CAM stuff? Charge more and do a better job? Get smaller? Get bigger?
Don't ask me!

Get elected to a high office.
When you feel that burning sensation from behind, you can follow the money trail to the cause.

High office, hell! any elected office gets you perks for life. Like health insurance. We have a city CFO who worked 6 yrs and is retiring soon. $5000 a month for life pension. Look up the retirement plans for state legislators...it's....now look what you've done! I got to go get my meds.

Well gee Tim.....that's what I mean...all the perks.....
Senators get no Social Security however, they are forced to live on whatever their pay was when they retired, poor guys.
Transferable to their wives I believe.
Now, take your meds.
