My dear, I have the patience of Jobe. There is ONE thing that "tests" my patience. The phone. "All agents are busy at this time, your call will be answered in the order it was received. Thank you for your patience." Repeated over & over & over until I find myself responding out loud: "You're under-staffed." Or, "You're welcome." Menus that don't include my needs & only allow me to listen to them again. This one is the most frustrating: "In order to serve you better, please tell us the reason for your call." Whatever I say, the response is: "Hmm, (almost like a REAL person) I'm sorry, I didn't quite understand you." I repeat it, they repeat. I say: "Customer Service." "Hmm, I'm sorry but..." I try saying "Operater." "Hmm. I'm sorry..." There is also the busy signal when urgently trying to reach someone, & when at last, it rings, "Due to a heavy volumne of calls, your estimated wait to speak with a representative is nine & one half minutes." Once I've actually connected, I don't want to lose it. After 15 minutes or more of invested time wait, I make a cup of coffee with one hand. 25 minutes. Now, I'm just being bull-headed! 35 minutes--CLICK. I've been disconeected. I may, on some calls, speak with a real person who advises me I'll be transferred to the appropriate department. Before I get the chance to complete--"Please give me the number in case I'm disconnected," I hear a beep beep. Silence. The words we all love to hear, "Your call was not completed, please hang up & dial again." I know this is silly; such an inevitable process to test my patience! I'll patiently stand in lines, what other choice? In grocery stores, the person ahead of me has some problem & the manager has to be called. People behind me grumble. Well, I'm not the only person in the world, right? I need to make a left turn, & the driver ahead is going 15 mph in a 35 mph zone. What does a minute or so really "cost" me?
I think the difference is--on the phone--I'm not transacting with a PERSON. Thus, THAT is the only thing that tests my patience!

Having toddlers and dropping my daughter. Being a mom gave me a direction my life did not have. It gave me purpose and a few thing to upward push up in the morning for. while my daughter became into clinically determined with maximum cancers at ten years previous life replaced dramatically. Any complacency or apathy I had stepped forward via the years disappeared and a sparkling purpose replaced the previous. She died three hundred and sixty 5 days after prognosis and it became into the appropriate and worst year of my life. I discovered how ephemeral life became into in an emotional way somewhat than in basic terms intellectually. I stay extra for her now that I ever did while she became into alive. each and all of the flaws she had yet to do I certainly have carried out. Her brothers stay an analogous way. Honoring her spirit ,increasing her ten years and giving her a voice she had yet to discover.. i'm nonetheless me yet fuller and richer and particularly chuffed.

Adults test my patience every day Kids and their questions I could deal with, but the grown ups I could really use some help in dealing with them, in every aspect of their being I'm pretty sure I test the patience of some people but for me its all of them

I cannot stand when I am driving behind someone doing 45 in a 65 mph zone highway, only to turn onto a residential road and they do 45 in a 30 mph zone. What gives people?

a lazy person...I think that I am allergic to lazy people. I mean the ones that sit on the corner all day or at their parents house and don't work but they are capable of working. Especially like the ones that don't work and they steal from others for a living. That vexes my spirit to see a lazy person.

1. Trying to talk to someone when they're on a cell phone, I really hate it, static and delay, Ugh!! 2. Rude drivers who tailgate and drivers who won't let you on the freeway, why can't people be courteous? All that drives me crazy.

Rudeness, cowardice and racism/bigotry.
I am also not fond of people who want to enter into a debate and will not listen to the opposing view; just spouting off their rhetoric again and again.

Arrogant people with attitude who think they are so much..._________ (fill in the blank)... more rich , prettier, thinner, more sophisticated, more cultured, you name it... whatever it is that they think they are more of than you. You see it in their eyes, or avoidance of eyes. You can also catch a glimpse if you look at them when they don't think you are looking.... that tells you worlds about what they REALLY feel.
