Waiting........

Hi dear Ann, I could use the time to get an hour's extra sleep . But frankly speaking, dear friend, I can get restless within a coup[le of minutes. People seem to be insensible if they make others to wait for a long time. I could go to the extent and say it is a criminal offense, (pardon me for the strong language). Just wanted to make my side of the story to look stronger, hehehehehe.

i guess it is too much to wait for an hour and 1 minute. i cant do that anymore. hehehehe

Having to wait for one person for an extended period of time is very rude of that person you are waiting on. It is a waste of your time to be asked to wait on them for more than 20 minutes. That is time you could be using to get your own errands done and then be able to come back for that person at a more appropriate time. I have zero tolerance for people that are inconsiderate enough to make you wait like that for them.

Wow thats an interesting way to keep oneself busy. But I need to get to know how to sew. I have never given it a try. It is indeed a way to distract yourownself from the frustrations of waiting. And yes, the magazines in the doctor's clinic are invariably worthless. Thanks for sharing.

A few years ago I nearly got arrested for being impatient while I was waiting. My Mom and I were at a grocery store with an extremely slow checker. He took fifteen minutes to do a 3 minute order. I lasted about 7 minutes when I spotted a can of Redi Whip whipped cream. I picked it up, pointed it at my Mom and stated "Your money or your life". She, of course, laughed as she had the same warped sense of humor I have. Well the checker didn't see any humor in it, especially after he hit the panic button to call the manager!!! Security and cops came flying in from everywhere and I'm standing there with a can of whipped cream LMAO!!! Funny thing from all of that, whenever we got into that checker's line after that, he would get us checked out in record time!!!!

Thats truly hilarious, I am still rolling on the floor, hehehehehee. God could something be sooo amusing??

Yep thats situational. People whom you love you can probably reason out with yourself that they are not making you to wait just for the fun of it. Some people do make you wait to ridicule you. It does make me insane.

You are a very patient person. I think people have to learn to be patient maybe it helps in the long run. But personally speaking I hate to wait.

Glad to know that I am not he only one, waiting for someone just for the sake of it makes me mad too .

Hmm to be patient it takes a lot of understanding. I can imagine the picture you describe of pacing back and forth. Thanks for sharing.

He did waste my time and you know what, When It was approaching exam time I was really getting nervous. We just made it to the exam center at the last minute. I just cannot wait for someone, maybe I need to workout this shortcoming of mine. Thank you for sharing.

I invariably get restless, friend. Whatever the place is however good distractions around if I am waiting for a person I will get restless. I feel that he or she is deliberately making me to wait. I have to wait at times in Q's or in the banks to get things moving that I do tolerate. But if I am supposed to meet someone and he makes me wait I just get so angry over it. Morever it was an exam day for both of us, and because of him I was getting late. I don't want to make it to the center at the last minute with me huffing and puffing. Then right from that moment everything goes awry. And thats what happened. Thanks for sharing mate.

Ummmm sounds interesting, but can you really hold up your frustrations? I think even if I choose to daydream I will still be coming back to the fact that someone is making me to wait, So I may not be able to properly daydream also, heheheheheee. But I may still give it a try, as per your suggestion.

Wow you must really be a patient person.

I think it is situational. If you are waiting for your friend and he/she really has a valid reason for being late it is certainly understandable. But if it is done by this person for him being inconsiderate then it hurts. People with one sided love do wait for some miracles to happen. I don't think they are practical here. No offence. Thanks for sharing.
