The NHS isn't much easier, even though it's free and no insurance companies (who are not amongst my favourite things either) are involved. Try getting a dentist when you move to a new area...and woe betide you ever seek to change your doctor if you are unhappy with them.
I actually assign to Mordor Doctor's Receptionists as they're growing increasingly like little Hitlers these days. You ring up for an appointment and not only do they sigh and bark at you because they've had to actually pick up the phone but they make it as difficult as possible for you to get an appointment. "You can have one three weeks on Thursday. I don't care if you are dying." Then if you want one sooner they ask you what's up with you and get the 'ump when you refuse to tell them and quite rightly point out that they are not the Doctor and as such are not qualified to judge if you are 'sick enough' or not. This is only one of the receptionists. The rest are quite nice. But that felt good all the same.

My assignment follows the theme of doctors and government bureaucracy...
I assign the bureaucracy of the our government-subsidised CBC, which somehow decided that the last fifteen minutes of Ken Dryden's hockey jersey retirement ceremony ought to run on into Doctor Who's timeslot.

I assign finding out you have to fundraise to get £150, and having no ideas on what to do!
In fact, if anyone does have any ideas please PM me!

I assign "real world math."
Math beyond addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division are completely separate of the "real world" in my mind. When I look at a ladder leaning up against a house, I don't think of taking a derivative. My apologies. Give me two apples and two oranges and I can tell you how much fruit I have, but.... |

The health insurance system not only belongs in Mordor, but I'm also sure it was invented there too.
By the way, I'd like to point out that this does not assign me to Mordor, since as a future radiologist, I won't be involved with the process of switching doctors. How refreshing.

When the one person you thought wouldn't forget when you had made plans not showing up for them. That can go to Mordor and never come back, as far as I'm concerned.
