I had been to a hospital today, with my sister who is not keeping well. But what I noticed there while I was waiting outside during her examination was funny . I thought I would write about the experience I had.
So, I was sitting in the waiting area just looking around, and what grabbed my attention there- the men! Men-young and old, who had accompanied their wives,mothers,friends; and even the male staff working in the hospital.
At a little distance from where I was sitting were three men. I'm guessing they were friends and one among them was meant to get a scan done. As they stood waiting for their turn,they were talking about everything else, mainly gadgets, but the reason why they were there . Unfortunately, I wasn't able to figure out which language they were conversing in till the very end,though I tried so hard.(I think it was Hindi or Telugu or Bengali...). Anyways,the only words I could hear and understand from their conversations were- I-Pads,I-Phones,Samsung 3s,Apple and so on!! In a hospital!!
Then in the other corner of the area where I was sitting was this man who had accompanied his wife. First of all his attire-a t shirt and shorts which looked like he wears them at home, and a pair of slippers. He receives a call in the middle of the appointment and so he gets out to attend it. Everything was fine until he started speaking on the phone. Either he had forgotten where he was or that is how he normally talks on the phone(which was so annoying). And there he was walking up and down the passage like he was at home and talking loudly like the other person was deaf. I think he has taken Idea's-Walk and Talk commercial very seriously. Fine,at least don't drag your feet while you walk and talk softly!
And there was also a young handsome guy trying to flirt with the nurse. And the male staff, just looking for a chance to talk to the lady patients. Need I write more?? ;)
