I am not good at waiting,never have been. I am just one of those people that always feel the need to hurry. In some situations I can soothe the anxiety by reading,but not all situations. I find when I am in a place with other people I am too distracted by bits of conversations and motions to be able to concentrate on the written word. I decided since I will be waiting a while today it would be fun to find out how much of our lives are spent waiting.
The average American spends and hour a day waiting in line which totals 2 to 3 years in a lifetime. 2 weeks of your life are spent waiting for traffic lights,on average a person spends 45 minutes to 1 hour waiting everyday. I have never resented that a third of a persons life is spent sleeping,as that is essential,but the time spent waiting in offices is more a matter of greed from over scheduling and expecting people to wait...and then to pay for that privilege! Any thoughts on what could be done to help curb the wait time?
