People who say "I'm sorry but you're wrong".especially if I'm not wrong (and they sure as Hell aren't sorry)
In supermarkets, people who shove their sweaty arm right in front of my face to get something ( I can bite them , yes?) or
I'm waiting for Woman A to pick what she wants from the freezer. I know I want something from the same freezer so I wait just beside her.
Woman B comes up "Can you move/Can I get in there"
No - fuck right off and wait your bloody turn like I am doing . Is your time more precious?
People (patients) who are late .
Patients who are late (but still seen) and the next time , turn up early and knock on my door.
And sit quiet throughout the treatment (when I am encouraging them to talk to me, it's like pulling teeth some days) but suddenly decide to give me their entire medical history and that of the neighbours postmans cat as well.
Trying to take a history "Any surgical history" ?
Instead of "Yes, I had my left hip replaced about 10 years ago, so 2008"
It's "Oh yes, a long time ago"
What did you have done
"Erm, my hip"
Which hip
"Oh , left" while feeling for scar
When was that...?
"Oh a long time....."
Just a rough idea
Or they don't bring up to date information ( BTW , we ask every visit)
"Oh yes, I've got new tablets......don't know the name . I should've brought them.....I've never been asked this"
Yes we do, every bloody time
