<p>I guess so lol, but where’d you go? Sorry, I was answering PMs. :o</p>
<p>So… BOO! lol.</p>
<p>Hey, you scared me…I spilled strawberry juice all over my kitchen, really thanks a LOT…jk lol haha!.</p>
<p>Whatcha doin’ (as we southerners say…I ain’t no rednekk ‘cause taaarnation ain’t letti’ me doo dat ;)</p>
<p>Oh my gosh, wow. I am trying to decide whether or not I should go to sleep. lol. I have work tomorrow! =( What are you up to? Silly dreamer-kid-person-boy?</p>
<p>I’m a bit tired…I have work from 9-3 tomorrow. I need to do SAT prep & summer reading, but it’s like I’m workin all the time…at least when I’m not here lol.</p>
<p>Last night I fell asleep past 4:00 am & got up at 7:55 am. (worked 9-3).
Day before that I went to bed at 8:20 am & got up at 2:00 pm (weird night, couldn’t sleep)</p>
<p>Had pretty bad day at work, well one patient kinda ruined it, but otherwise it was alright. Lady ewally ticked me off…wanna hear about it? How was your work today?</p>
<p>Lol, my work was alright. I woke up at six did homework until 9:30 then went to work, and then I went to the movies.</p>
<p>I know. I don’t have time for anything. All I do is homework and work. TOO MANY AP’S! jk. I kinda like it.</p>
<p>My school doesn’t do the SAT, we do ACT.</p>
<p>And… go ahead and tell me about it.</p>
<p>Where do you work? At least you had fun at the movies, right? Oh yeah, except it apparently sucked or something lol ;). All I have to say is 1.5 more years of work, then rest 2nd semester 12th grade yaaaaaaaaay!</p>
<p>Is ACT truly easier than SAT? You know?</p>
<p>Well, I work at a free clinic (partly funded by Churches; also NC gov’t pays for our stuff). I was zoning this morining, too much CC for a Monday lol. So, we filled up quickly (was off for 4 days, sick people from long weekend), but I got a bit tired of paperwork. I kinda roamed, did a lil bit here and there for a while (filing patients’ records and such).</p>
<p>So, I was like 2 minutes from leaving when this lady walks into the clinic. Here’s the dialogue (best that I remember):</p>
<p>–Hello ma’am, how can I help you?</p>
<p>–I need to sign up (very blunt tone)</p>
<p>–OK, ma’am, sign up as a patient or are you interested in voluneering?</p>
<p>–Paaaatient. When do I sign up?</p>
<p>–Ma’am, we have no clinic right now (meaning no doctor’s, i explained this to her), and we will hold another one at 5:00. Peo…
–(interrupts) Iiii was told to be here right now, uhm I called.</p>
<p>–did you speak to somebody today ma’am, have you called here today? (Several was her answer; very snappy woman)</p>
<p>–I’m not sure who told you that, ma’am, we don’t have doctors to see you right now. We just are filling prscriptions right now. I’m pretty sure that you cannot sign up now, ma’am.</p>
<p>–She says blah bla blah…where do I see doctor rigth now?
–Ma’am, we are a free cl…</p>
<p>–Can you hear (she SCREAMED)? I mean where do i sign up (my co worker told her, “we’re inside, we don’t talk that way in here.”…evenge haha)
–Yes, ma’am, I can hear. this window is where you sign up</p>
<p>–When do I see the doctor?
–At 5, ma’am, that;s when we open our evening clinic.</p>
<p>–Where am I signing up? Where do i wait?
–You can wait there (pointing to lobby). We normally have people lining up outside, that’s why we encourage people to arrive 15-30 minutes early (she was 1:45 early…ugh)</p>
<p>–Where do they line up (as snarky as can be)
–Ma’am, people lin up on that side walk OUTside. The pen hits the paper at 5, that’s when we open (I grew tired of her, and tried to emphaaize get out my face lol)</p>
<p>–You SHOULD HAVE told me right at this spot, okay? That IS what YOU should have said. (this made me so sick how cruelly she said this…like she went to Harvard or something)</p>
<p>–Yes, ma’am. Have a good one (I slapped her so hard that nurses had to come see the fiasco! jk…hehe)</p>
<p>I was a bit surpised by this mean woman and her bad attitude, and co worker wanted to see if I was OK. I told I was perfectly fien, I’ve worked in restaurants before, and ad to deal with her type. He said that should never happen again and just get somebody else if I felt like it…they can deal with that snitch lol</p>
<p>Sorry for the super long post, but that’s what happened! Tell me what you think!</p>
<p>Ohhh idk harry potter was it wasn’t true to the book. It tried to be funny and romantic. No action!! Btw I’m a chick!</p>
<p>Oh, I guss they tried to make that movie franchise lie all of the other popular movies right now. Personally, I only read like 3 pages of one of the books, so I don’t know it too well haha! :)</p>
<p>BTW, did I call you a dude? Sorry if I did, I know that you’re a chick (yes!)
We’re FWB, no?</p>
<p>Ohh not you you, lost<em>in</em>thought. I heard harry potter is really good if you didn’t read the book though!</p>
<p>But as for me I think they continue to go down hill but I’m still aching to see the next two anyway!</p>
<p>Is that right? I’m sure they’ll get worse/less true to the book on these last 2 coming up. Ohw ell, such is life lol! ;)</p>
<p>BTW, did you read my incredibly long post describing my “bout” with a snappy woman today? It is really long, but do you think I had a right to think that she was CRAZY? I’m sure I’m going to talk to my boss tomorow about this, hope that the conversation will be pleasant! :eek:</p>
<p>Well I haven’t been participating in these conversations but I found this thread and though it was intriguing. Anyway, sorry about what happened to you, I have been in some of those situations before but just realize not everyone is like that. However, I must say that from your description the women does sound “crazy.” I know several people who would have punched her so good for you for holding back:)</p>
<p>Haha I actually did. And I was trying to imagine you speaking it with a southern accent. I don’t know if you have one but Ill just think you do because you said “ma’am”. But that’s ok if you do because I have a new jersey accent.</p>
<p>@Wartsandall: Thanks fr the encouragement, I appreciated it. I just wanteed to amke sure that I wasn’t the petulant one! This is my fifth week at the clinic I think, and she was the worst that I have seen. The worst part was she repeated questions when I thought that I had answered them. Oh well, she got the medical care that she needed, which is what was most important I guess.</p>
<p>@smilemyonly: Haha, I really have no accent right now. My voice is a bit plain, if anything I have more of a DC accent or something lol. Northern Virginia I suppose…I just have to use southern words because I thought that it was the best way to be polite! Everybody here has thick accents (at least majority does), so glad I’m not like that lol. </p>
<p>When I went to a Brown camp, somebody asked me, “Why don’t you have a Southern accent.” I spoke with a Boston accent for a while, and somebody said, “Hey, you’er from around here? I didn’t know that!” LOL, I’m good with voices. </p>
<p>Jersey accents are hilarious, I mean I had a cabbie from Jrsey (when I was in Providence, RI),a nd I was like that’s sweet lol. </p>
<p>That woman had some audacity/chutzpah to behave like that, at least I didn’t lose my cool She tried to win a “court case,” be the big winner in a medical clinic, I can’t believe she needed that ego boost.</p>
<p>Atleast you kept your cool idk if I wouldve. </p>
<p>Anyway, Oh wow Iwas imagining a pretty thick accent like hannah montana - esque. My accent isn’t that think though. Or atleast I like to think. I still say coffee funny though.</p>
<p>Just out of curiousity, how old do you think the women was? If she was around 70 or so, she might just be one of those people who have short term memory loss. It seems that several elderly people I have encountered can be like that, especially at senior homes, but I love them anyway:)</p>
<p>Haha, saying coffee funny is awesome!</p>
<p>I was a bit trained by dealing with petualnt people in the restaurant biz, some people are JERKS!</p>
<p>I can’t stand Hannah Montana’s accent, it’s soooooo annoying! I can do that accent for the purpose of being funny, but I can’t keep that up lol! </p>
<p>I had another cabbie in Providence who was from Alabama, most fun I’ve everhad in a cab! I was glad to be alive afte that! Dude looked like a sketch escaped convict that did meth(couldn’t drive at all)…:eek:</p>
<p>I don’t even know what an alabama accent sounds like! Those southern ones just kinda blend in. Haha</p>
<p>Trust me, you don’t want to know. Two people I work with are from Alabama (they’re engaged pharmacists). It’s like Hannah Montana, but she’s the most annoying omg. She talks too loud, too much…</p>
<p>It’s funny when southerneers try to imitate jersey, bronx, and, boston accent…people epic fail at them. Really, I need to videotape it lol!</p>
<p>Oh its ok though whenever I try imitating boston, southern or even English accents I suck too! Blahhh my jersey accent will stay with me forever.</p>
