Check the dipstick first thing in the morning, make sure you are on level ground. The "Wait at least 10 minutes" is for the oil to drain back into the drain pan to give you the most accurate reading, however this is dependent on a lot of factors (Oil life, temperature, viscosity, what oil you used, some people using 5W30, etc). If you check after leaving it overnight then you know for sure all of the oil is there. I change my own oil and always drain out exactly what I put in (5.5L) and it reads exactly on the MAX dot when I check in the morning.
I swear some people around here need torque specs for the license plates
