Now, we have all been there, in line at the store, either in checkout, customer service, or getting or dropping off a perscription. And there is always someone in line that just seems hell bent to get on your last nerve. THIS IS THE THREAD TO PUT VARIOUS WAYS OF DEALING WITH THOSE PEOPLE! Now, here are my favorite ones, and some of them are loosely based on fact.... 1) Look the person straight in the face and say, "I hear voices and they dont like you, and if I dont get my meds REAL soon, I may have to listen to them." 2) Look the person in the eyes and say, "I used to go into a rage dealing with people like you, but the meds have helped a whole lot. Now if this line would just move faster...." 3) The statement "Please tell me you have not contributed to the gene pool, the human race is in enough trouble already." works as well. 4) Have a long, serious conversation with 'Harvey.' If you need a reference, check out the movie of the same name with Jimmy Stewart. 5) Keep turning around and looking past thier left shoulder. Now, considering that I have been diagnosed with PTSD and Bipolar 2, just about all of the ones are slight stretches of the truth. Of course, with the voices statement, just because they dont see the blue tooth and realize I am on the phone is not MY problem, is it?
