If you knew of the lives of some of the workers in the Villages, you would have more empathy.

Everyone, including you and I thinks they are perfect.
As to rude people-that seems to be the original thought.
As my friend says, they were always like that but as they get older they get worse.
As to doctor's offices I see it as a sign of respect to show up on time. I do understand how/why but with the doctor we have been using lately, if you have a 10:00 appointment at about 11:00 you are let into a room for weight and blood pressure-SHOULD BE CALLED THE AFTER FIRST WAIT ROOM. Then, they pass your off to a nurse practitioner. Frankly, the one we saw last time, while a nice person, WAS TOTALLY UNQUALIFIED. Point-it shows a total lack of respect for the patient.
SEE-I DO NOT CLAIM TO BE PERFECT.
