As a pharmacist I attempt to answer the phone with a succinct and friendly greeting.

"Thanks for calling, how can I help you?"

Yesterday morning my perky greeting was shouted down with a rapid fire staccato name of a person and medication.

I paused..."I am sorry...that was not a complete sentence...I don't understand...how can I help you?"

Loud crash of phone into its cradle.

I am still amazed after 20 years how rude people can be to those who attempt serve them.
