Summary
Corey Proffitt-Boyd humorously explores the everyday awkwardness of waiting rooms—seat selection, accidental eye contact, stale magazines, chatty neighbors, restless kids, and the panic of low battery. Under the jokes he finds a deeper point: waiting rooms are one of the few places where strangers briefly share the weight of uncertainty, reminding us of our common humanity.
