Been down with this terrible bout of fever and cold for the last two weeks. Just doesn't seem to let go. The temperature doesn't go high but stays low thus irritating me and making me all dull and sleepy :-( And don't ask about the cold. Allergy and sinus make it worse!
Finally decided to go to the doc today and get an opinion after husband, dad and mom (in-laws not yet ;-)) had told me a good number of times. Reached the doc and was given a token. 30? Wow! Good business for the docs within a span of few hours in the monsoons, with each patient around me complaining of similar symptoms. What I found ridiculous was that people in the waiting would take off for a while and on getting back try to still get in to meet the doctor in between others, even if their token number had gone by. Hello Mister, don't you understand 15 comes before 24 and not after 24 and to top it all, 15 argues with 24. Do we others waiting look stupid to him or what!?? And there was not one but quite a few of these jerks around. Well I had an unending wait of nearly 2 hours thanks to such people!
I mean citizens of India still need to learn some discipline in these matters. Docs too should teach their attendants to put such people back in line after the people waiting if they have missed their turn on taking off. Cause if the docs just look at the money they are going to lose by not obliging to take such patients in between, then the ones in waiting might just turn out to be the ones they lose! :-)
