Waiting room nightmare

I'm sat in a waiting room at the hospital waiting for a blood test. One of my conditions causes significant pain so I can't get comfy at all on the chairs, I'm having a massive allergic reaction to something- probably perfume or cleaning products, and the queue is moving so horrifically slowly that they've called in 3 in half an hour and I'm another 20 away so you can imagine how rammed this waiting room is....

Then in walks two people with a child (who can't be having a test because theirs are done elsewhere in the hospital) and immediately puts flipping Baby Shark on their phone at full volume!

Seriously?! There are two adults with them, if the child really can't wait without entertainment, why on earth not take them to the cafe- only steps away- or something?

@Whatareyoutalkingabout It's too late now. You're going to have Baby Shark stuck in your head for the next 6 months. It's stuck in my head just from reading this thread.*

ok, I hate baby shark; so I retract my comment. I guess I am just immune to it at this stage and I appreciate @1moremum if baby shark is that magic for calming the child then they need to run through their entire set of other options before bringing it out cause when the child tires of it they have NOTHING.

Hope you are out and bloods given @ceirrno
