Ten Types Of People You'd Meet In A Hospital' Waiting Room. by BukkyDan(f): 10:14pm On Mar 11, 2015
Hello Nlanders, I was at the hospital today and I couldn't help but observe the people around me wink. My mind raced to Nairaland and all I could imagine was make list cheesy. this is just for fun no bashings please embarassed

Okay...Here we go

1) THE FIRST TIMERS

These category of people claim they've never been to a hospital before. They have this suspicious look and ask questions like kilode.
They be like..."errm...excuse me please. are you also waiting to see the doctor? I dunno if I'm on wrong queue...do you think the doctor would wanna see me? If I go in..what should I tell the doctor?" shocked well...


2) THE FRIGHTENED

You could tell from their looks that they are scared like kilode grin...they wince and shiver when they see a nurse walk by holding a syringe.
and yes, you would hear them scream when a nurse tries to give them injections as recommended by the doctor. grin


3) THE "I KNOW SOMEBODY" GROUP.\

These ones would just walk straight to the office of the consultants without joining the queue. When somebody tries to stop them,they be like "do you know who I am? I am not an ordinary somebody...the chief medical director is my uncle's neighbor, the consultant is my childhood friend, you see that nurse over there? She is my wife's friend. I also work here, see my I.d card? I'm a security officer" lol grin


4) THE SHOW_OFF/ FASHIONISTA

They would make you wonder if you were at a beauty pageant, with the over colorful make-ups. the ladies move around in heels swinging their designer bags, making you wonder if they are actually ill. Did I forget to mention the big boys in their ALL-STARS and SUPRA...holding window-sized Ipads up and down, they'd be displaying their iphones... you might as well think you were in a phone shop. angry


5) THE CUSTOMER CARE REPS

This group would make calls till thy kingdom comes. Even when it is their turn to see the doctor, they'd still go in with their phone glued to their ears. angry


6) THE SLEEPING BEAUTIES

they would start sleeping from the very moment they sat down till when you have to wake them up in anger angry they would drool and even sleep-talk. It baffles me how they'd be comfortable with people nudging them and pushing their heads away grin


7) THE SELFIE LOVERS

Hello...this is a hospital. could please save the shutter sounds till whenever you get home? grin they go click-click, with camera lights trying to blind the poor patients. It's really annoying when you see them making duck-faces and doing peace-signs, these people are supposed to be ill
Even when the hospital workers try to caution them, they roll their eyes and continue with their jobs. grin Heaven help you if they ask you to be the photographer. grin


cool THE RELIGIOUS ONES.

THEY come in holding Holy books and the rest. My problem is not how they read or pray...but how much they fail to mind their business. They be like "Bro, wetin dey do you? Fever? give me your name lemme add to my prayer points" shocked embarassed


9) THE GENTLE ONES

They mind their business, always quite with calm faces. I love these group, they have this aura that makes you wanna imitate them. they are also the Chief observers kiss


10) THE "ULTIMATE SEARCH" GROUP

LWKMD...they wanna search for their missing ribs in the hospital grin Asking young girls for their phone numbers, some even run after the nurse and other health workers. The runz babes searching for Alhaji with pot-belly grin it is well.


That is just it...my first attempt in the listing ish...
God bless you as you read, smile and leave you comments.




(please don't mind the typos...typed this in a hurry embarassed)

Lol at Ultimate Search Group.

The funny part is when Okada riders and guys who have not shaved their beard in a month, with shabby dressing and overwhelming confidence, approach me and say "Sir, me I like that nurse well well. She na nice woman. Infact, na she I wan marry. You get her number? Abeg help me."

I'll be like "Mr man, go and talk to her yourself."

At that moment, liver go cut am. Hehehe.
