I feel like a little girl right now. I feel like stomping my feet and screaming. I don't wanna go to work!!!! Grumble grumble. Necessary evil. Please lend me words of encouragement, friends. Maybe this will keep me from yelling at the most ridiculous of patients. How dare I ask you to wait 15 minutes? Surely you're so much more important than everyone else who've brought their prescript
ions in before you.
On a positive note, this job has taught me patience. We only have 2 arms, 2 hands, 2 legs and 2 feet. We can only do so much. I don't expect from others what I can't expect from myself. We are not superhuman and we cannot make things go faster, though we may want them to.
Thanks for the venue to whine. I think I'm done. For now :)

Having spent over half of my working life in some kind of retail or service oriented field I can certainly empathize with dealing with the irate moron...err I mean customer.
One thing I learned early on is that the more they complain the less they actually have to complain about
. Understanding this made dealing with them a lot easier. Instead of becoming upset myself it allowed me to pity them because they obviously have a sad life.

Inhale 1 2 3 exhale 1 2 3 ...worked w/ public for 35 years and their rudeness 9and random kindness) never fail to blow me away.
Hang in there...even the worst day comes to an end

You keep me smiling, and that's a good thing! Hope your day went well...
