All my friends that were allowed to donate had no complaints. The people that weren't allowed (like myself) think this place is god-awful. If your pulse it too fast they will give you ten minutes to calm it down. They will only give you one shot to do this. If you fail twice, you have to come in the next day. They let my friend (who has a history of passing out for no reason at all) donate blood and she -here's a shocker- passed out, But refused to let me donate because I was four beats too fast for their 108 beat per minute cut off. They didn't use the machine to measure my pulse the second time. They did it by hand and watch.
