Flip The Switch...

patentdragonYesterday, the bank advised me to make an appointment to see a "financial advisor" or somesuch. I did just that, and got an appointment for today. I was early, and sat waiting... and waiting... and waiting...
By the time I actually got seen, I'd been there half an hour, and had been told THREE TIMES that someone would see me in the next five to ten minutes. The "advisor" was little more than a BOY, and he seemed to be struggling to operate the computer - and I wanted out of there, for his sake. He couldn't make the transfer of funds I requested...
CLICK. My switch got flipped. I told him not to bother, and departed as politely as I could manage, but inside I was freakin seething. I don't care how busy they were, or what problems they were having - this was MY TIME that was being wasted.
Boy, was I glad there was a comic order waiting for me at home - when I could finally read any of it.
Elsewhat... What looked like a very promising solution to one of my "props", for Mission Task 88

88 - Create usable stage/screen/cosplay props of three pieces of costume or equipment from my own projectsmight not be the ideal option after all. I may already come across a simpler alternative - I shall see how that's going to work out
