"You can have him after I've arrived him." This is because the actor is not the receptionist but the Faldage. - I beg to disagree. The phrase was definitely used as a kind of shorthand for a formal process (sequence of prescribed actions) executed by the receptionist. I think this kind of "language" is not uncommon in the "health sector". It is probably related to the proverbial illegible writing of doctors.
