Oh, the wonderful public!

In my job I work with the public, gotta love it! I had a couple new ones today I can say I've never come across.
So I was checking in a patient and about halfway through the check in process, yes it takes awhile-patience people, I had a lady call her cell phone customer service and tell them about a problem she's been having with her cell phone. So naturally me being the nice person I am talked louder and even more than I normally do to finish checking her in. She had the nerve to ask me to be quiet because she was on the phone. I ever so politely told her that she walked up to my desk and if she wanted to be helped then she needed to get off her phone. She then asked for my supervisors name so she could complain about me. Go ahead lady, I was just doing my job!
Next all the receptionists, including myself, had a patient we were helping. This guy comes in walks over to my desk practically pushing my lady out of the way and says he needs to check in for his appointment. I tell him I 'm helping someone and that I can help him when I'm done. He walks to the girl sitting next to me, who is helping someone as well and tells her he has an appointment and needs to check in. She tells him she can after she finishes with the person she is helping. He continues this to all four of us. Dude! Wait in line! We'll help you as soon as we are done.
I swear there is a full moon soon. All the crazies are starting to come out!
