Default The Rudeness Continues

I know I have posted about this before, but it seems that the rude behavior in this area is not limited to our busy season.

I had an endoscopy scheduled at the TV hospital this morning at 9:30 AM. My wife had to drive me because they didn't want me driving home after the procedure. She drove me in her GEM car which is street legal. We were heading east on El Camino Real towards the hospital when a car got right on our tail and then laid on the horn. Just about scared my wife to death. Oh well, no big deal, the person must have been in a big hurry....

After the procedure they gave me a prescription. We dropped it off at Walgreens and were told that it would be an hour for pick up. Since I had to fast the night before I was famished so we went for a nice brunch at First Watch. We finished our lunch and it was not quite an hour so we figured we would go over to Lowe's and kill a little time and pick up some things for the garden.

So we waited almost two hours before going to pick up our prescription which was supposed to be picked up in an hour. We went to the drive thru pick-up lane and when we got to the window the pharmacist said it would be a few more minutes but that we should wait right there. So we did. We waited about five minutes (maybe a little longer).

After we paid and were getting ready to pull away the woman behind us laid on the horn and started yelling. My wife thought maybe our door was left open or the trunk was open. I said I would get out and see what was wrong. When I got out I couldn't find anything wrong with our vehicle so I looked at the woman who had honked and shrugged my shoulders. She honked again and yelled something I couln't understand. I walked towards her window to see what she wanted and she said "get in your golf cart and go on your way already." Apparently she was in a big hurry and was ticked off that the pharmacist took so long with our order (or she thought it was our fault because it took so long). I asked her why she had to be so rude? Why did she have to yell at us and lay on her horn? I told her it wasn't our fault. She gave me the finger. At this point I was ****ed. I had just had a procedure, I just wanted to pick up my medicine and go home. She said if I came any closer she would call 911. I said "go ahead and call 911 you rude b*tch." I think this kinda surprised her, and she said she would pray for me. I told her to pray for herself, because she wasn't being very Christian.

The rudeness continues...
