I just got back from having blood drawn, and while the nurse was nice, she had trouble getting blood from my left arm. Now, I have giant manly veins that all nurses have praised, so I'm rather annoyed that she dug around in my arm for several minutes to no avail and was forced to switch to my right arm. I now have pain shooting from my left shoulder down my entire arm.
I remember when I was in air force ROTC, they basically motivated us to give blood, 'for our country.' So about 3 or 4 of us marchecall gung ho into the trailer, where we watched some girl get poked about half a dozen times in the arm. I don't know about the rest of my group, but I spun around, hopped out of the trailer, and hightailed it out of there. When my commander caught up to me and mentioned that I was lettinf my country down, I said, "Court marshal me," and walked away. I don't like needles when I have to get them, but I lost all patriotism at that point.

As for what annoys me, we have 2 nearby Walmarts, a larger one 15 minutes away and a smaller one 5 minutes down the road. The larger one we like since it has everything we need and the workers are all helpful. The smaller one on the other hand, is filled with people who don't give a ****, throwing items haphazardly on the shelves, one clerk trying to rip my wife off when she was putting money on her Moneycard (They found her $100 'accidently' placed under his register), and they just love to leave only 2 registers open when the place is packed. Now for the latter one, I could understand if it they are short on workers, except we'll be waiting in line for 20 minutes while a dozen workers are either in the back or right up front doing some stupid cheer. Really? Doing a cheer about helping customers is more important than actually helping customers?
The only reason we go there is it's a short drive, but it's getting to be so much frustration for stupid reasons.
