Today I went to the allergist, and he signed me up to get a blood test done, to see if I'm allergic to latex.

I take the paperwork to the lab, hand it to the nurse behind the counter, who looks at the request, adds a Post-It note that says, "NO LATEX GLOVES," and passes it back.

I'm taken inside, asked to sit down, the bloodwork technician takes the sheet, puts on some latex gloves, notices the note, doffs the gloves, spends about 5 minutes looking for the nitrile (non-latex) gloves, puts them on.

Then she ties a latex tourniquet around my arm.

"Umm... maybe you shouldn't do that," I say.

"You have a latex allergy?"

"Well, I'm getting a test for latex allergy."

"You're not allergic, then?"

"I don't know if I am."

"So, why is there this note if you don't know whether you're allergic to latex?"

"Uh..."
