The women on the boards will most definitely find this way more funny than the guys.......
Not at all HR related but way too funny not to share!! Not sure if it's a true story or not, but it's so funny, I don't care!!!

"I was due later in the week for an appointment with the gynecologist. Early one morning, I received a call from the doctor's office to tell me that I had been rescheduled for that morning at 9:30am. I had only just packed everyone off to work and school and it was already around 8:45 am.
The trip to his office took about 35 minutes, so I didn't have any time to spare. As most women do, I like to take a little extra effort over hygiene when making such visits, but this time I wasn't going to be able to make the full effort. So, I rushed upstairs, threw off my pajamas, wet the wash cloth that was sitting next to the sink, and gave myself a quick wash in "that area" to make sure I was at least presentable. I threw the wash cloth in the clothes basket, donned some clothes, hopped in the car and raced to my appointment.
I was in the waiting room for only a few minutes when I was called in. Knowing the procedure, as I'm sure you do, I hopped up on the table, looked over at the other side of the room and pretended that I was in Paris or some other place a million miles away.
I was a little surprised when the doctor said, "My, we have made an extra effort this morning, haven't we?"
I didn't respond.
After the appointment, I heaved a sigh of relief and went home. The rest of the day was normal...some shopping, cleaning, cooking, etc.
After school when my six year old daughter was playing, she called out from the bathroom, "Mommy, where's my wash cloth?" I told her to get another one from the cupboard.
She replied, "No, I need the one that was here by the sink, it had all my glitter and sparkles in it."

Doh!
I have a friend who had a similar thing happen to her..they rescheduled her appointment to an earlier time so she did a quick check with her compact before the doctor came in...well, he walked in before she was done and very calmly said "powdering your nose?" ...every time we go out and someone pulls out a compact we look at her and laugh.
After all... turnaround is fair play!
Not that we would get any enjoyment at all hearing about any un-comfortableness you guys might have to endure during that annual exam. Nope, none at all. Nope. Never!!
Without going in to too much detail, I'll just say I WISH that is all we had to do for our visits.
(edit) and roughly 25% of the comments so far have been from Parabeagle, who purports to be some sort of expert on the process the girls endure. You need to quit hanging out here Beagle!
