People Are Posting The Things That Annoy Them The Most (50 Pics)

Microsoft word often causes me to push slowly away from the desk and leave the office for a few minutes until my fury subsides

OMG. This is so disrespectful.

All that just so you can be ignored because you damn well know the boss’ niece or nephew or whatever will get it.

Always wondered. Maybe because setting up an account gives them permission to collect and share your data?

There really is no need for this debauchery

Well, he's obviously disabled... in the driving skills, social awareness, and good citizen departments.

Horrible

That is disgusting.

Why isn’t this higher?

Oh I hate this to the ends of my toes

But... you do! :)

This makes me so sad and so angry

Oh hell, this is a regular issue in my damn office. Also on a related note, there is a damn toilet bush located conveniently next to the toilet bowl for good reason. Sodding well use it!! ARRGGHH.

And if you leave at 12.00 without even having seen anyone you get a bill for "not showing up" On the other hand if you go out to investigate what's happening a nurse starts yelling at you to stay in that room because you're interfering with the routine and that's why it's no wonder they are running behind.

My Dad handles this by saying to the doctor, " My time is as valuable as yours. On my next appointment t If you are later than 5 minutes I will leave and then find another physician. " He hasn't had to get a new doctor yet.

first appointment of the day and they're still late... I mean... I can understand the end of the day, but surely the 1st one should be on time?

It's also super annoying when there's no one in the waiting room but you still wait an unreasonable amount of time for a doctor to look at you for 10 minutes just to say "everything looks good, you can go now"

My record was 6 hours! It was an amazing specialist who was very good talking to his patients and listening (hence why I stayed). We would bring books & food knowing it would be an all day adventure. Sometimes we would go out to lunch!

Got them beat.. I showed up for a 9am appointment and had not seen anyone by noon. I was waiting for the results of a test my son had. When I attempted to leave, the doctor finally emerged from his office and got belligerent with me. When I called his business partner to complain, he said there was nothing he could do since the Jackass was a senior partner. The A**hole even went so far as to send me a letter saying that I could not return to his offices because I was "being difficult." The justice came when I wrote a scathing review on Yelp, the ADA and the BBB. Others soon followed suit and they were out of business in less than a year...

This is about the point where my mother would start going through drawers and stealing medical supplies.

Yup. My record is 2 hours, 55 minutes in a freezing room. Had already put on the paper gown, too. Felt sure that the doctor or a nurse would come in as soon as I got dressed, then leave so I could get back in the gown, and I'd have to start all over again.

If the doctor was late even for a minute in a Russian hospital, our very sick and angry babushkas would have eaten him alive :D

I have been tempted to calculate my hourly pay times the useless time I have to wait and send a bill to the doctor's office just for fun.

The best experience waiting for the doctor to show up hours later while you are sitting in a paper gown and pray to god your bottom doesn’t sweat. We all know what happens if you sweat through a paper gown.

Just keep the door open! They hate that!

No. I'd be out of there ~9:15, talking to the front desk.

In the US, the patient's satisfaction with the doctor often makes a huge difference in how they get paid. A letter of complaint for being treated like garbage can affect their compensation, especially if they're run by a corporate health system.

after waiting for more than an hour at my neurologist appt and then having a patient with an appt scheduled AFTER mine get called before me, I told the receptionist that I was cancelling my appt and would be changing doctors. This wasn't the first time something like this had happened. I went on to firmly tell her that my time was every bit as valuable as the doctor's and I was giving serious thought to sending HIM a bill for wasting my time! (While I was firm, I was not rude--I know it was not her fault. It's apalling & unethical that patients are scheduled as little as 10-15 minutes apart--what level of care is that?!)

Nah. B******t. If the American healthcare system is gonna run on a for profit model you’ve got the right to leave that room and act like the entitled customer that you are.

I make it ABSOLUTELY clear If I make an appointment they have 1 hour to see me or I'll walk out. Done it many times till they get the message. I'm scheduling my time as well, its rude to be late and they'd be pissed off if I was late and messed up their schedule. Don't take that c**p they give you about "We had an emergency come in".

Spent 2 hours waiting for a CAT scan Friday told to come back Monday because the machine was down. Waited 2 plus hours today for same scan. Told machine went down again. Sent across town to another facility. Unfortunately, this is the group my insurance likes. :(

Open the door and leave it open. I never sit behind the closed door. Doesn't have to be open more than a foot or so.

That makes me insane. I purposely make my appts for the first slot of the morning to try to minimize the wait time and I still have to wait a half hour. They can't even see the first patient of the day on time.

looking at these to destress from going through this

I don't stay more than 25minutes waiting for any Doctor. If there was an emergency okay I get the wait. But because you're running behind or you consider seeing people who came in late then cancel some appointments. I'd rather reschedule than waste my time. My time is worth money to me.

I asked them to take $75 off my bill once. When asked why they should do that I told the office admin that it was for having to wait almost 2 hours after my scheduled appointment. I asked them, "Do you not realize my time also comes at a price?".

I've did walk out after 15 min late after my appointment. As long as the public continues to put up with this nonsense, it will continue .

My Dad used to call ahead and ask if they were running on time. His clinic would actually tell him :-) If they were behind, they might tell him to come in 30 minutes later than the appt time. I don't think they would have accepted that if everyone did it, but my Dad had a way about him....

Always!

I would have started looking for someone at 9:00. I had a dental appt. at a dentist I had not seen before. They stuck me in a room and I waited and waited for someone, even a nurse to acknowledge I was still waiting. In the meantime, I could see through the door several personnel were standing around laughing loudly. I finally got up and asked them when someone was going see me. They had the nerve to tell me that there had been an emergency and they were behind. They could have told me that 45 minutes earlier. I never went back.

Sounds about right.

and when you made appointment they tell you to be there early

Time to leave and make sure you leave them a bill for your wasted time ......

look for some pills

I had a family doc years ago who booked people for 10-minute appointments, and in exchange there was NO waiting. If you needed more time than 10 minutes, you booked it in advance. If it was something awful, he would send you to a better place to get taken care of (this was a large university medical center). It was great, I could be in and out in 15 minutes total, and for routine care 10 minutes is plenty. I miss that doc, but I moved away.

Or when you need a stamp from doctor for school papers and they charge you 5€

Surely you can find a new doctor. If they did not respect you enough to at least touch base with info as to why you are being left to cool your heels, how long it will be, and if a long time still, offer you another appointment, you would not want their medical care. Probably don’t care about that either buddy!!

Herein Canada only had to wait like 20 minutes.

send them a bill for lost income

I hear you, as a clinical lab technologist, and now a new nurse!!! No one gets it.
