we all have a tendency to think that by virtue of our unique circumstances we deserve some form of favoritism, especially when we are required to queue before receiving certain services. Truth is you never really know how bad somebody else has got it till you hear their story. The video below describes aptly what i mean. when next you have to create that extra lane in traffic, or jump a queue or jump to the top of a waiting list remember other people's needs might be more pressing.
An IRS contractor named Braulio Castillo hurt his foot playing football
in military prep school. He never served in the actual military. Then
one day, decades later, he used it to get preferred treatment in
government contracts. Rep. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.), who lost both her
legs and still could lose her arm from combat injuries, felt that this
might just be a touch inappropriate. It gets amazing around 4:30.
