"I'm sitting in a doctor's office waiting room with 30 chairs in it. Four chairs have been taken, so there are 26 empty chairs," the woman said, setting the scene in the r/BoomersBeingFools subreddit.

Your waiting room is crowded, so she sits down next to other visitors. She left her phone in the car, so she flips through a magazine and plays with the TV remote.

The waiting room is more than a showcase of your therapist’s interior design skills (or lack thereof). It’s more than a place to sample muzak or white noise.
