For a couple of weeks now, I’ve been having eye sight problems, letters and images are a bit fuzzy and I’ve been having headaches. I tried going to the Dr. to have my eyes checked but didn’t find the time till today.
First of all, I have an idea, not because I’m an IT person, but to get an appointment for eye sight checkup, you’ll go through these steps.
- See the general Dr. She’ll give you a reference to the ophthalmologist – just Googled that term ;P -
- Take that piece of paper and only in mornings to set an appointment for your eyes check
- Go to the eye Dr. to get your sight checked out
Since I’m only looking for an appointment, why isn’t there an automated system to register my request?? See I didn’t say generate an appointment, just register my request. I can login a website and input my civil ID, name and contact number, they can store the information and the next day, after the person responsible sets an appropriate appointment, sends me a message and I can reply to confirm or call up. Wouldn’t that be more efficient! This is the lowest level of solution, or just have a person answer the phone and write down requests. Look at the bright side, more jobs will be created!
So I went to the “مستوصف” and as I was standing this lady goes ahead and cuts in line!!! I’m thinking coooooool down, many people do that, it’s NOT worth it, but this what comes out of my mouth:
لو سمحت هل في سبب انج عديتيني؟؟؟
wait … wait for the finaleeee ;P
من اللباقة انج توقفين بالدور
LOL, I don’t know where the hell I come up with stuff like that! Everyone was sweet and apologetic, maskeeenaaa the woman who cut in line and the person behind the register counter ;P
Anyway I go into the Dr’s office and of course, sitting in the chair in front of her, fighting the urge to push her aside and use the oracle forms she keeps exiting and opening! She ends up puffing her cheeks and writing on a piece of paper.
I hope I can get out of work tomorrow and set my eye appointment and then I reaaalllly hope I don’t have to wait that long to check my eyes out. Last time, I had eye sight issues, were in my graduate year, the Dr gave me some eye drops and advised me to blink!
I just need to rest for a while, it’s been hectic for some time now and I need a break … Don’t we all …

After a hectic month of staying up between 1 & 3 AM working on the production system clustering & such, my right eye started to twitch by itself.
It’s been 2 weeks already and it won’t stop twitching…

It happens due to stress. I just can’t believe it won’t stop even though 2 weeks have passed :/
btw, you were quite polite with that lady. I think if I’m having stress issues and that incident happens, I’d simply grab that person and throw them out of the line :p

Nosayba, thnx dear, it’s nothing really, I guess I just stressed my eyes a bit … we’ll see if I need glasses or not
MBH, what goes inside, isn’t reflected as an output! I’ve high self control! That’s why you see me bitching a lot on my blog ;P But I do my fair share of outbursts and it ain’t a nice scene

First of all: Salamat. I hope by now you managed to see the doctor and have recovered.
I tend to remain composed (on the outside) when somebody cuts in line, but I almost always feel like saying: “Excuse me, were you raised in a zoo?”
Maybe you can use that next time and tell us how it turns out. Of course, you can throw “labaqa” in there somewhere

hehehe, I always have profanity circling my head! But they don’t come out, well they do but rarely in public thus the labaqa word ;P
I hope I don’t be put in that situation again where I feel the urge to speak up ;P If so, then I’ll give “raised in a zoo?” line a try ;D
