Not surprising in the slightest.

The incompetent appt person couldn't care less, they most likely get paid the same thing whether they do their job or not. And, depending upon location, it's often too much hassle to get rid of even the most inept employee, considering that their replacement isn't a great bet to be noticeably better.
