You must have read my mind about reviving this random thread. Saves me from finding the pet peeve thread.

I just received an e-mail from a total stranger about an upcoming benefit (which shall remain nameless)- they appeared to rip off the entire SoWal youth soccer e-mail list and use it for their own mailing. For some reason, this really bugs me, since I don't know the sender, and it's kinda ballsy and rude to take someone else's list and use it. So if the sender is reading this, I'm regretting.:angry:

truth in advertising - the "star" in the starbucks sign is burnt out, so you are now truly going to "bucks coffee" :rotfl:

:lolabove:...too awesome! Hopefully, the bucks will burn out soon!

Man, life is really more stressful when I am not at the beach. :shock:

Why are doctors & repair personnel the only ones NOT socially required to keep to a schedule? I wouldn't have any clients if I told them I could meet them "sometime between 10 and 2" or keep them cooling their heels after I scheduled an appt.

My frequently tardy self can understand 5 or 10 minutes leeway as some patients may require more time or an emergency may crop up, but anything beyond 30 is really pushing it! Last 2 times I went to see a doctor I waited for 1 hour (45 waiting room, 15 in exam room) and 50 minutes (44 in waiting, almost 10 in exam room). That first doctor will NEVER see me again as even after waiting that long (for a scheduled appointment mind you) I got pawned off on a PA who caught me just as I was about to leave. :angry:

Payback is a b....! All that time at the beach has come back to get me.:D
Direct TV was here twice last week and coming again tomorrow. Right now I am waiting on the dishwasher repairman on a dishwasher that the warranty expired on in September. :bang:

One should not be "paid back" for going to the beach!

(What else have you done to earn some bad karma--hee, hee? ;-))

Hope it all gets better soon.

I got a reward for waiting on the repairman...he was a stand up comic! Here is his joke...when he played football, his coach made the familiar speech..."there is no "I" in team. The repairman said..."no, but there is a M-E". :rotfl:

Speaking of comedians, did anyone happen to see the Frank Caliendo special on TBS. He's an impressionist that is soooo funny. I think his new show FrankTV starts tomorrow night.

this is also a pet peeve of mine with my dr. if he wasn't so good and i wasn't one of his first patients he had in this town i would leave. as it is i make him stay for my whole allotted 15 mins. he knows better than to even venture off his little rolling stool if i still have time left.
