34. I am little more aggressive than that, especially in a waiting room

of sorts.

The View was on in this one waiting room and turned up rather loudly and completely obnoxious as usual. There was me and another lady in the room waiting on our spouses. She was reading book and I was doing homework, and I asked, "Would it bother you if I turned off the TV?", she replied, "Not at all!". So off with the television.

Another time it was Fox news, again very loud. There was a group of people all reading, "Excuse me everyone, would anybody object to me turning down the TV?', and everyone said, nodded in agreement or motion with a hand gesture to go ahead to do so.

A lot of times just saying something can improve the situation.
