Hahaha thats deliberate man bashing, from what youve described of the pathetic wait one would expect the sisters to wear at least skirts and short ones at that. hehehe small compensation for the stupidity the callousness and the indignity that one has to undergo at these monopolistic Institutions. Seems they have never heard of the term "human rights" and the plight of us poor folks forced to go again and again to the same @#^%*&#$ place. ‘And where are the pretty angels of mercy in their white frocks, the short ones at that??’ the wistful eyes of the men seem to suggest as they watch a few of the ‘angels’ flit by in their uniform trousers and shirts”.

Well to tell you the truth even I think so too, that a challenge only meets with a longer waiting period. Junior had a fall from his mobike and fractured his wrist. I think here in India people err on the side of too much patience (my view). Glad I made you laugh <strong>Richette</strong>. Hmm... so the situation over at your end is similar to ours! :P Thanks, Junior is better. <strong>Ganga</strong>, hehe, yeah sometimes its tough to take things lying down. Yeah Junior and I make a goofy pair. <strong>Mel</strong>, so nice to see you! You're not going to believe this, I just thought of you a short while before this comment of yours appeared!! This wait is indeed such a pain and anything to reduce the boredom!! :P :) Bob, Lol @ I was given a number 3, but see my other post–it says I am a cipher.

It's great that you two can share a good portion of humour while waiting for your turn to arrive (well, what a pain to having to wait so long, anyway ... :)) Hey Shail

Great to read of you and son junior after a long time of being absent due to travels and work loads. It’s great that you two can share a good portion of humour while waiting for your turn to arrive (well, what a pain to having to wait so long, anyway … :) )

I found myself laughed alone though trying to hide it coz im in the office. I might be mistaken as crazy one....he he he...^_^ Your system there in India when it comes to waiting the doctor for a check-up is somewhat the same here. 9 a.m. is their rounds in the hospital and then 10 a.m. is the schedule for their clinics. Since we need them, what can we do? Nothing, but to wait for their precious available time. :) Hoping that son junior will get well soon. The scene of “impaired hearings” is hilarious.

I was given a number 3, but see my other post--it says I am a cipher." If my wife was in on that joke, she would be wincing right now and saying, "Oh, Bob, that isn't funny." When I go somewhere where I must wait, I never forget to take a book or two and perhaps a small nootebook to jot down post ideas. Methinks thoust were a model of patience. I always figure if I challenge the authorities that they will go out of their way to make me wait longer. I don't know how it is in India, but in the U.S. not only do people lack patience, many lack civility, and many are ready to launch a "hissy-fit" (outburst of animal-like temper). How did son fracture wrist? I also hope he is doing well Maybe, after waiting for a while, you chould have said, “There must be a mistake.
