The system

It's bad enough that the system sucks itself but when you go to family court and ask for papers, why does the clerk feel the need to be rude? Thinking back, I wish I would have said, "Why are you being so rude to me?" I know her job must be frustrating but I wasn't really asking that difficult of a question. I was asking about filing an objection to a petition and she stated that they did not have an official objection "paper" and that I was just supposed to write, "I object to this petition because of blobbity, blah blah blah and blobbity blah blah, and blobbitly blah blah, blobbity blah blah. And then you must serve the other party." And I kid you not, those were her exact words. I cannot believe that she said, "blobbity blah blah" to me. I know how it sucks when you're working and you're overwhelmed and frustrated...I worked in a group home with teenage girls but just because I was frustrated or overwhelmed by the paperwork my job involved, it didn't give me the right to be rude to the girls when they requested or needed something. And these girls called us every name in the book...and we still had to be calm and not be rude. When parents called screaming at us because they couldn't get their way and called us names, we still had to be polite. Despite the urge to "ring a parents neck" for what they put their child through, we still had to be polite to them. I'm sick of the system.
