Despite the clear sign directing visitors to the receptionist on the 3rd floor, a middle-aged impatient lost lady and her husband knocked on my office door in our multi-purpose building where I work for an architecture firm.
Despite being informed that it was an architecture firm, the impatient lady insisted on finding the doctor's office, disregarding the directions given and becoming agitated when seeking assistance.
When the lady demanded help finding a doctor's office in the building, despite not having that information, the OP offered to let her use their phone to call and inquire.
As the lady grew increasingly frustrated and unable to recall the doctor's name or number for her appointment, she demanded the OP to call the building manager
Despite the OP's efforts to explain the lack of contact information for building management and the absence of a staffed main office, the frustrated woman refused to cooperate
The OP clarified that they were an architect, not associated with the doctor's offices, and directed her to the actual receptionist on the third floor
Despite the husband's attempts to explain the misunderstanding, the lady remained insistent, demanding the speaker to call their receptionist
In a huff, the lady stormed off down the hall, dragging her husband along
the lack of a front desk or building security made it challenging to redirect her, ultimately leaving her to pester the receptionist
