I work as a dental receptionist, and one of our patients whom I was talking to on the phone thought I was drunk at 9 in the morning. He was very rude about it and it was hurtful. I told the doctor and she called him back saying he either needed to apologize or he couldn’t be seen at our office. It was nice having someone stand up for me for a change.
