Glad to hear that you and Ms. Francine have the trip behind you, Mr. O.D. Kick your feet up, stay cool and take care of yourself. As for the lack of bedside manner of healthcare workers....I don't think that bad attitudes are restricted to the medical profession. I'm amazed at how rude people that work with the public in all areas can be.

(bkgagent: I'm amazed at how rude people that work with the public in all areas can be.) ??? I went shopping the other day with my sister Beverly,?I don't shop that much any more?except what I have to, after?going in and out of several stores, I?noticed such a difference in the store clerks' dress and attitude from just a few years ago. Several were chewing gum and sounded like "yeah" and "nah". Beverly is a shopper with endless energy, I asked her about it and she said she was noticing it in a lot of stores now.? In one nice store, a?clerk?had on a tank top and tights, I was kidding Beverly about, "Are you sure she is a clerk here?"??Oh, for the good old days. ha? Guess that is a sure sign I'm getting old.....? Before anyone that works with the public gets too upset, I know it works both ways!!!! I certainly see enough rude customers also and I've worked with the public myself, but the clerks I noticed the other day turned me off buying in those stores and if?that happens too often, I wouldn't think there would?be a job. As for health care workers, I recently recommended a dermatologist to someone, telling them that he was a?smart doctor but?didn't have?a good bedside manner, they later told me they'd never go back to him. I warned them.?He's been around?a long time?and has a busy practice, one of my favorite aunts once told him to get out of her hospital room and?not ever come back.?She was the best and I still miss her.

Maybe everyone who public works needs an ATTITUDE adjustment now & then or give them a dose of ex-lax. Peggy > Glad to hear that you and Ms. Francine have the trip behind you, Mr. O.D.
