I went to a hospital wearing a shorts and a faded shirt. I was asking the receptionist the schedule of the doctor I was about to visit. She ignored me because a lady who was dressed up and looks like somebody came in. She assisted the lady very well and ignored me. Who wouldn't be upset. I was the one who asked her first but because I looked like nobody, she snubbed me. The second time I visited the same hospital i was wearing a corporate dress cause I came from work. The same receptionist guided me politely even though there are people who is asking her for instructions. He also gave me magazine while waiting for the doctor. I'm wondering, is that how people act? Would you only believe a doctor who is dressed up and act like a doctor?

misa.,.. lot of ppl try to judge a book by its cover.. superficial appearance makes a lotta difference in gettin ur work done.. same thing has happened to me so many times when i was in college.. used to roam around in football jersery and faded jeans.. gettin ppl to notice u is kinda hard cuz they assume ur a slob bt once u start goin in formals their whole image of u changes.. they think ur a smart and saintly guy..lol.. m well one should change their persona so that society accepts them.. we shud b wat we are

Though you change your clothes, still, you are what you are. Yes, lots of people are judging books by its cover but there are wolves whose hiding on a sheep's clothes.

wolves hiding in sheep clothes are the worst kind of ppl you will find i agree.. bt with experience one gets to kno hw to read ppl better.. mistakes actually make u better at it.. lotta ppl like to impersonate cuz they feel their life is not adequate.. i pity them.. klike i sed before you should be wat u u are and not change for others unless for reasons bigger..

animemisa!Our dress really counts.haven't you heard about this,"first impression is the best impression?".The easiest and quickest way to impress anybody is with our dressings and so,I don't find any wrong about the receptionist.Even you will do the same thing,i hope.

It sure seems like it. I have had similar experiences and get so angry with people. I have worked in an office and on the dirty floor of a factory. People act different towards me and i am the same person. Why don't they grow up.
