But in this situation, suddenly, it wasn't okay. Because this wasn't the store or the accountants office. I'd been sort of--spoiled, I guess?--by the undivided attention I usually get there.

Its a perfectly valid feeling. So many of us have not had our needs met or responded to appropriately that we do have some expectations that our hour will be sacrosanct and ' our space and time ' won't be intruded on. There is a perspective but its reasonable to feel the way you do.
