Minor thing, but irritating; I had a letter telling me my eye test was due. I rang up and booked an appointment, which was 9.25 on the day, but they asked me to arrive at 9.10. The day before the test, I got a courtesy phone call asking me to arrive at 9.10. I agreed.
On the day I arrived at 9.08, having walked slightly faster than I intended maybe? I was met at the door of the Opticians by a large security type female, who very aggressively asked what I wanted. I explained my appointment,and that I was here, as requested at 9.10. It was actually 9.09 at this point.
Quite nastily,she said that I was 'too early' and I needed to walk around for 'about ten minutes' before returning. I did so, but was quietly fuming.
On my return, no sign of aggressive lady troll, and everyone was as nice as could be. Maybe she was having 'one of those days'?
