Waiting rooms

[Bexi]

Definitely the Vet's! You can tell which people will be leaving with their pets and those who will leave without them and its so sad to see.

On a more positive note though - whenever I go to get my dog's nails clipped, he goes ape-sh*t crazy! He's a German Shepherd [Alsatian] ex-police dog so is well trained and usually quite placid, but when he realises we're in the waiting room of the vets havoc ensues!

You generally know a waiting room experience isn't a positive one when you have to be gently, yet repeatedly reminded that your snoring is disturbing everyone else in there.

I've never really minded waiting rooms but I had bloods taken in london and that was a whole different story. It was really busy and we had to take a ticket from a machine and wait for it to beep up on the screen for when we could go in. The only other place I've been that has a ticket system is Argos xD Then once I was in there were like 10 other patients in there all crammed in having blood taken. The nurse was also really rough and terrifying.

Those ticket things are interesting. There's one at the post office near me. I'm convinced they have some arcane ability to tell what ticket you have and then call you to the farthest away counter possible to where you actually are in relation to it. >.<

Really? I've had blood taken many times and its always been a little old lady with a clipboard!

I remember once giving blood with someone who was due to retire the next week (I learnt this through gossiping with her and her wearing a novelty badge!), but bless her she was AWFUL! She missed the vein on my right arm 3 times, blamed me for having small veins and then switched arms. On the 2nd attempt on the left arm, she wiggled the needle around in my arm for 10-20 excrutiating seconds 

After a couple of days my arms were covered in the deepest, darkest bruises i've ever seen! Lol i've not gave blood since!
