I always get the short one and I prefer to not have the extra wire wrapped around me. We deal with enough on a daily basis so I know how one little mishap can send you over the edge! I'm glad you were upfront with them about the whole thing.Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17032040751678678327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-50956216519439230082011-03-11T19:36:44.308-05:002011-03-11T19:36:44.308-05:00Really is the little things.

The people look at me like I'm a picky and stuck up girl who is ranting over a couple of measly milimeters! It drives me insane. I don't mind someone not getting it initially, I do mind when I try to explain and they clearly don't want to hear it (sometimes even rolling their eyes).

If it's something any schmuck can just guess at, then why crap do we need to go through the hassle of obtaining Rxs anyway? Sorry this happened, K2.
