This was actually last week.....last Wednesday to be exact.
I was merrily toodling down the road on my way to the tanning salon, when a newer Honda SUV being driven by a blonde bombshell with her mouth wide agape yapping on her cell phone cuts me off (honestly, I doubt she even saw me, she didn't even stop at the stop sign and just went left).
To make things all the more merry, she was also on her way to the tanning salon. She whipped into a spot and I parked next to her.
Little Miss Important waltzes in and angrily taps her perfectly manicured fingernails away at the counter as she waits for the owner of the store (she's there every morning. Best owner of a small business I have EVER seen!) to finish wiping down a bed and come out.
The owner looks a little frazzled. She explains that there is something wrong with the computer system and she hasn't been able to get the computer to time the beds and get them to work. So she wasn't even cleaning a bed, she was probably messing around with one of the beds trying to turn it on. The way it works there is the attendant programs the time into whichever bed you'll be using and you go into that room, get naked or whatever, turn the dial on the bed, press the button, and you're good to go.
She said "I'm going to reboot the system...it's going to take about 5 minutes, do you want to grab a seat and wait it out and see if it works?"
Little Miss Important sighs and says "I have things to do today. I GUESS I'll come back later!"
I said I had no problem waiting, and sat down and started reading a magazine. Heck, sometimes on the weekends and almost always during the school year it's so busy that I sometimes have to wait for a bed for a few minutes.
Sure enough, about five minutes later......it works!
Little Miss Important really needs a lesson in patience being a virtue. It really didn't take that long at all. But I guess when you're a busy, busy important lady, you don't understand that concept.
