On Monday, one of my back molers broke away. I called a dentist's office to see if they could take me in. They booked me for today at 8:00.

So I went in meant the "dentist from hell". He asked me why I was on disability (government). I briefly explained and this seemed "acceptable" enough for him as he questioned me no futher.

So the dentist said that he thinks we can save the tooth as I had a lot of feeling in it yet. He froze it then said he would be right back. When he came back he said he needed to discuss something with me. So I just nodded yes. He said that "people like me" tend to be too demanding. I looked at him puzzled as I did not say much when I talked with him prior. I did not complain, said the pain was not too bad at all. He went on to say that as I am on a disability, they only cover so much in costs. And "people like me" expect his type of profession to do "charity" work. If all they had for clients are "people like me", they would not survive in this business. That they have worked hard to establish themselves, that "people like me" don't recongize that they have educated themselves to become "better" people. But of course he said, "Don't take this personally, but "people like you", need to know this."

So as much as I wanted to tell him about "people like me", my mouth was frozen (well not completely), and I had to have this fixed or it would have kept breaking away. And in all honesty I was so angry and upset, if I would have tried to talk, I would have cried. And no way was I going to "display" how pathetic I am. As "people like me" are not worth taking time away from people like him.

So he started to do the work but the freezing did not totally take. I was trying not to jump, but it hurt the more he drilled. So he stopped, and was not happy. He put more freezing in but it still did not take well. But I just told him to go ahead anyway. He said, "Oh, do you think you can handle it." (in the most sarcastic tone possible). I once again nodded yes. And it hurt like hell but I was not going to budge. I had to hold his tools for him but was probably good as I was thinking about poking him with it. So then he takes his drill thing, goes to a totally different tooth and starts drilling it. I looked at him like what the frick are u doing?? He gave me an explanation that I really did not follow but he said he had to because if he didn't the tooth that he was fixing may continue to break away. Which made no sense but whatever. I just wanted to get the hell out of that place. But man, did I feel the pain when he drilled that other tooth. I mean duh: the freezing did not take well on the lower part of my mouth so lets she how much I can take by going on the top part.

So he finished up and said he felt it would be okay. Too just be careful with it for a few days. Then he said not to come back. Like I would anyway.

So I guess "people like me" need to learn and accept to worship the ground that people like him walk on. And why I let him get to me I am not sure. But I have just stopped crying since I walked out of his office. And fighting back many more. But u know...people like me....
