for the surgery and it dawned on me that I am truly a 100% pure old fashioned smart ass. As I am looking at the class titles all I can think is a more fitting title for how these people treat those of us in the class.
Now, for the most part they are definetly supportive, but they are also condescending. I don't do condescending well at all, I tend to get pissy with people that treat me with that particular attitude.
Here are some of my smart ass titles (along with the original)
Original is bolded, mine is italicized.
Weight Management 1
Weight control for dummies part 1
Weight Management 2
just in case you didn't get it the first time
PreOp GBP Nutrition Clinic
We still don't think you got it
Support Group (now this is the mandatory one I made comment of before)
Listen to me talk down to you cause you are still fat (serious, that is how it went, pissed me off with this waste of time)
Occupational Therapy Clinic
This is a leg lift, this is a bicep curl... do these
Ok, so maybe they are funny to me and no one else, but I got a chuckle out of my frustrated translations... and trust me, I am very VERY frustrated with the process at this hospital. *sigh* Oh well, I am jumping the hoops, doing what needs to get done, and hopefully in 3 weeks (might be a month) I will have my date. Cross your fingers I don't kick someone where it counts.
