WAITING, WAITING, WAITING ON THE ...

Repairman. Who gives them that power? How can they give a 4-hour time frame? People of the world: Unite. Stamp out repair and/or delivery men.

Can you imagine being ill, ill enough to have to go to the Emergency Room and having to wait four hours to see a doctor? Oh, yeah, that happens. Nevermind that analogy.

Can you imagine buying a whole bunch of necessities and groceries at Wal-Mart and then being sent to a check out line that runs fifty feet long, while unmanned checkout counters abound and 20 Items or Less (sic) are denied to you because you have the nerve to purchase forty or forty-five items? Oh, yeah, that happens, too.

Can you imagine trying to buy tickets to a ballgame or concert and being put on hold or getting a busy signal for over one-hour? Even when you are willing to pay exorbitant rates for the tickets? You're catching on. That happens, too.

Can you imagine that repair man or service man not intending to show up and not calling when he can't? That just happened to us as I'm writing this blog. True story/sad song. But I'm outta here now. Freed from the waiting game.
