Kicking Butt Like a Lady
Waiting forever in a checkout line today, I began to get agitated. The elderly lady in front of me said, “dear, you have to learn patience.” I don’t think so. I marched up to the manager, and suggested he bring another staffer to a register. And so he did. And the line moved much faster.

Patience is a virtue I do not possess.
Thank you for not making me feel so bad
