What impressed you negatively?

"the facilities. a mural or two would do wonders to break up the monotony. The Mormon men voicing their opinions on the "roles of women" in the waiting room (specifically, the numbers of hours it was "ok" for their wives/significant others/girlfriends to work.) It made being the only female extremely awkward. I truly felt discriminated against and was close to disclosing their inappropriate conversation and hostile looks--thankfully the tour started.
