To: Bald Fat Receptionist

When someone approaches the reception counter and asks to see a person, you contact that person straight away.
You do not grill the visitor on the reason of his/her visit beyond the most obvious.
You do not overstep your own authority by trying to talk the visitor out of seeing said person.
You do not leave the counter unmanned for five minutes with a visitor standing right there without a single explanation to him/her.
You do not then come back, sit down and flirt with a nurse without so much as a glance in the direction of the visitor, much less an explanation.
You DO NOT IGNORE ME.
If you did not inform the person I wanted to see that I am here, you do not give the impression that you did then sit down two feet away from me for the whole of ten minutes without even acknowledging my existence.
You do not then get up and leave AGAIN without a word to me when you KNOW I am sitting there waiting.
You do not let me waste the next fifteen minutes waiting at an unmanned counter.
If your colleague did not come back at the time he did, what would you have done? Leave me there for the next hour?
If I did not already know that filing a complaint against a government servant is pretty much the most useless thing I could ever do, your superiors would have had my complaint letter on their desk in under an hour. Unlike you, I am not stuck in a dead end job with no future prospects and thus do not mind doing nothing with my time.
Thank you very much for wasting half an hour of my life, you mother fucker.

No love,
Me

p.s: One good thing that came out of this - after I blew up at the other receptionist, he was falling over himself trying to please me, so I got his best service every time I was there for the rest of the week. ^_^V
