I was so pissed off, even the words in my head that I wanted to say were bleeped out.

when i had to have knee surgery it was really quick for me cause i was playing sports...on a rep volleyball team...so i was high priority and it only took me 2 months from the time i had the appointment to the sugery itself.. Now that i am just like every other working schmoe out there its taken me over 4 months now waiting for my surgery date after i waiting 2 months just for the consultation and i bet i won't get into sugery till the winter. Unfortunately they really do prioritise people...if your old...you wait..if you play sports...your ahead...if you have money...your ahead...if your a no body you wait and wait and wait a little more.
