Pet Peeves

[Alagirl]

my pet peeve currently is understaffed doctor's offices.
their official listing states they are open in the afternoon, but you call them at 12:01 PM they are closed.
If it is a specialist, no biggy. I just want to know.

Now, the GP, the 'Urgent Care' place, different story.
When the call is answered () 'don't come before 12 though, the provider isn't in'
The place used to have 4 nurse practitioners and a doctor. Now they have one temp nurse. And they don't pay her, so she takes some personal time - and I cannot fault her for that. Put a dang crowbar in your wallet and pay your staff!!!
So I guess I will check out the place closer by the house. It sucks (not the other place, the situation) because I liked the care I had gotten there before

I mean, what good is an urgent care clinic if it's not open even during banker hours.

I'd be happy for that. More often then not I've gotten no response.
Idk why people post stuff for sale then don't reply when you're interested in it.

I know this big time… my saved list is littered with “for sale” that have not logged back in to their account for days (greater than 8), weeks (greater than 8), & months (greater than 6)…

Is anyone else, in other parts of the country, having problems with Walgreens pharmacies? I've switched to one of their competitors because they are so ... well, incompetent; there, I said it. And inconvenient. Our local store is no longer open after 6 pm where they used to be open till 9. They are no longer open weekends at all, and yes, they used to be. This is a major peeve for me. Oh, and although they advertise that they will sync your meds so you can puck them all up once a month ... yeah, no they don't. At least in the ten plus years we have dealt with them, that's never happened. I'm wondering if they're going out of business and just don't care?

I don't use Walgreens pharmacy so I can't speak to this, sorry

People with tiny cars that pull all the way into (sometimes over the line) giving the appearance that there is a parking spot ahead.

I will neither confirm nor deny that there have been pic’s shared on different social media accounts over the last 20 years showing the *daylight* between some jerks horrendous parking skills and my vehicles magically textbook style backed into or just nose in 1st to my space with near laser centering inside my parking stripes.

I have exited the passenger door from my vehicles before when giving that “special turd” something to solve… how will they gain entrance to their terrible parking spot…..

There seems to be a growing number of people in America who will "correct" others when someone calls a chicken - a chicken.

"Look at that chicken!"

"That's not a chicken, that's a rooster."

Good grief.

On craigslist someone will advertise "five chickens and one rooster".
