Yesterday was one of those days. We were insane at work, and then...then, I had the call to top it off.

Let me preface this by saying when I was younger, I had severe allergies and asthma. Was visiting the doctor's office every week usually.

So, my longtime, beloved pediatrician called into the office I work at to schedule a procedure. I introduced myself, and he said cheerfully, "Oh, I remember you!"

I felt all warm and fuzzy for one, shining moment, until his next sentence, at least.

"Do you still have problems with your weight?"

And, back to earth with a thud. "I don't really worry about it, sir."

"Well, that's good. As long as you're reasonably okay with it."

Honestly, I don't remember much after that. I know I was polite, and kind, and got him the FUCK OFF THE PHONE as fast as possible.

*sigh*

I went into anaphylactic shock in their office, and stopped breathing. But what does he remember? My fat ass. Go team me.

I'm sorry he's apparently reasonably okay with being an asshat.

Oh my. *hugs* That's really tactless, I have to say. From a doctor and longtime attending previous physician, I wouldn't find it odd if they inqired to your general health in maybe more detail, like asking about the asthma but not that.

I'm sorry, baby. I wish there was a "slap upside head" feature on your phone.

*HUGS* Urgh, I hate people who feel the need to dictate to others about their weight, even YEARS after you exit their sphere of existence.
