Should I be hot about this?

Keep in mind that I’m stuck in a boot with a partial tendon tear in my ankle for 4 weeks? 6 weeks? 8 weeks? Stupid things like a message saying call another number (the one you’re calling) because the dog can’t answer can do it to you, especially the 2nd or 3rd time you hear it.

I don’t understand your point re being angry at the vet’s office.

Whoever is on the phone at the vet’s office has to suffer your wrath, because you are uncomfortable with an injury?

How would the vet’s office know they should tippy-toe around you, until you feel better?

I get it that the injury makes everything in the world worse … for you. Not sure why that justifies the vet office being sucked into your misery pit.

Suppose you call the vet’s office to discuss your bill … and the person answering has a very uncomfortable, dismal injury, or maybe a bad cold but they can’t take off work even in these covid days, or maybe bad news about their mortgage being behind, and feels that therefore they can take it out on the next caller – you.
