[ 78th consult | voice ]
[Wilson's voice does not sound quite right today. There's a bitter edge to it that isn't normally there - unless, of course, you're one of the very few people (probably, in fact, one person) who have witnessed him actually get angry enough to lose his filters. He's not really angry, though, just... irritated.]
Apparently, some of us in the City received special training in the advanced art of being an incredible ass. Not that this should come as a surprise to anyone, of course - certainly not to me, at any rate. But, for the record, there are a few basic codes of conduct that can be followed if you'd like to avoid being one of these incredible asses.
When someone holds a door open for you, say thank you. If you don't, and they decide to drop the door so that it hits you, it's really your own fault.
If you bump into someone on the street, say excuse me. If you don't, and they decide to trip you, that is also your own fault.
And if someone happens to be sitting at a cafe, reading over a patient file and enjoying their coffee, with their foot up on the unoccupied chair on the other side of the table, ask before you take the chair. Because if that person should decide that their hot coffee coming into contact with your skin would be an effective means of conveying their displeasure - I'm sure you can guess - it's your fault.

Maybe I ought to, though. I have no idea why I'm so worried about offending people all the time when they have no problem offending others.

[Like the kid trying to hold his tongue right now. He normally likes Wilson, after all. The doctor just sounds very irritable today. Then again, none if it's directed at Ken, so he's not taking it personally, at least.]
