    That has been there for awhile, I seem to remember a response below it saying something along the lines of “three hours!?!? that’s nothing!”

    I’ve seen this too and thought of wait times myself…But then thought again: how do we know the unknown artist spent three hours waiting for service? Could the unknown artist have been a nurse with a three-hour shift? Or a patient with a three-hour surgery? Or a patron of the hospital’s cafeteria who had a leisurely three-hour lunch?
    I don’t mean to be needlessly critical, I just think it’s interesting that when an unknown artist (or anyone in Canada) states that he or she has spent a few hours at a hospital, the automatic assumption is that he or she was waiting.
