How Rude! Move It!

Lately my patience has been "Nil" - "None" - "Non-existing"

I'm not saying I'm perfect but some people are just plain oblivious about what is happening around them.

Like for instance when you are in a grocery store and you are going up and down the isle and you come across people talking to each other smack dab in the middle of the isle. You just stand their. Maybe clear your throat to let them know you are there, maybe even say excuse me. But they just stand there and continue to talk or just look at you as if you are disrupting their important conversation about How Aunt Nelly got a little tipsy at the family reunion and ass over tea kettle into the pond.

Funny as it may be ...... "I Don't Care" ---- Get Out Of My Way!

Last night (Thursday) was pay day for me. So I get out of work at 5 pm and headed to the bank. (No Lines for a change)

I need to get a prescription filled so I head next doors to Price Chopper and there is a small line of about 3 people at the Pharmacy. I sigh.... (Lack of patience) but I stand there in line. Seemed to move rather quickly until (And wouldn't you know it) the person in front of me.

It was a Price Chopper employee at that too! It took her less that 5 minutes to give the pharmacist her prescription but she flapped her lips for another 5-10 minutes. As I'm trying patiently to wait by the sign that says to waite for your turn there to protect the other persons privacy.

What privacy? All she is doing is yacking about something that has nothing to do with any kind of medical problem (Mono, aids, syphilis, Crabs etc)

By now I'm starting to tap my foot getting antsier. Shifting my weight front one foot to another mumbling under my breath -- "Come on, Come on, Other people have things to do, places to go."

Still nothing. I let out a big sigh. Start looking around and making those faces. You know what I mean (Rolling eyes, half crooked mouth, then that COME ON Look. You know where your eye kinda bulge out you stretch your neck a bit to emphasis the urgency as your hand makes gestures)

Yeah, you know what I mean.

They keep yapping and laughing. I creep forward a bit. I'm invading your space. Better hurry before I lose it completely!

Finally after about 10 minutes it's my turn.

I walk up to the window and she asks if how she can help me.....
UUggghhhh, where do I Start? But I just smile and tell her I need a prescription filled.

And of all things....It was for my high blood pressure

STRESS - That confusion created when ones mind overrides the bodies basic desire to choke the living shit out of some idiot asshole who desperately requires it!
