1.  Music replacing the ring tone when you call someone.  This doesn’t normally really bother me because one of all my friends actually uses this…but I don’t like that much either.  It has especially come to my intention while I have been calling people to schedule interviews with candidates to take my job.  Its not so bad if its like one girl’s and Dave Matthews Band is serenading you after the operator says “please enjoy the music.”   Do I have a choice?!  No, it would be better if I did.  But it is especially annoying if it is some gangsta rap describing private and inappropriate behaviors or if it is just frankly a really annoying stupid song.  And I can’t help thinking that it is really immature and unprofessional.

2.  Rude OLD ladies!!  I volunteer at the hospital Mondays and Fridays.  I love Fridays; I look forward to see the kind old women that I work and chat with in the office.  It adds more to my day to be able to serve and those around me lift me up.  Mondays on the other hand, are probably one of the most dreadful parts of my week.  The women are rude, unfriendly, bitter, and treat me like I do nothing.  Its been like that from the beginning.  Today I confused one of them by helping them and she chewed me out!  I know this is silly but I actually cried b/c my feelings were so hurt (I never take things like that well anyway) but I have also been more emotional lately for some reason.  Grrrr… I am emailing today to switch my day to Wednesday.

3.  Gross old men!  We have a patient who’s husband comes and waits for her in the office.  Imagine sitting quietly working and then a TUBA goes off in the room.  That is EXACTLY what his voice is like.  Very loud, obnoxious, and I even had to ask him to stop telling me crude jokes!  How awkward is that! His poor wife is so embarrassed.

I hope you do not think I am a terrible person for writing this.  I just had to express some of the stresses of my day.  But I can kind of laugh at some of these things too…except the old ladies at the hospital.
