After 5 minutes I go find someone and tell them that I took time off work to be there, we scheduled an appointment for an agreed upon time, and they're wasting my time with their unprofessional conduct. The doctor usually shows up within minutes after that. Don't put up with their bullshit. Your time is every bit as valuable as theirs. If there was an emergency then I'm perfectly understanding, but that's rarely the case.

When I was young I had a difficult time asserting myself. Now in my late 30s, I find myself putting up with less and less bullshit. That said, it's frustrating that took basically half of my life to learn how to speak my mind. I blame my grandmother for giving me her anxiety.

At least you're better at it now! Congratulations.
