This! I appreciate when someone is straight forward.
This gets me into trouble far too often.0 -
Inconsiderate people,who don't acknowledge when ya hold a door open 4 them & im like "Ya know I'm not a doorman here!!" ...or "Ur welcome!!" ...Or when ya let someone pull out in traffic & ya let them go & they don't even give that "Thank U" wave & then I turn into the Hulk!
How about when people hold the door and you're still 20ft away so you have to do a little sprint..
I admit that I try to be polite and hold doors. I don't know how far away is too far, it's hard to judge sometimes. I don't want to appear rude and have it slam shut right as they get there.
Yep. And then if you hesitate a second too long you pretty much have to stand there and hold it or you will be a jerk. So basically if I can see another human I will stand there and hold it. Lol. I don't feel like they should run though, that is on them if they feel the need to hurry up a bit.
This makes me feel as if you have never been on the other side of this. Do people open doors for you?
Open? No.
Slam? Everyday.2 -

Yes, and I rush to it, but that is just how I am. I also hand strangers at Taco Bell straws and lids for their cups and help people find things at the grocery store. I helped a lady look for her grandson's shoe on Sunday. I am a wack job
wack job? nah.... you're just old skool midwest (we're of the same tribe).
I've tried to make an effort ,of late, to slow down a bit and enjoy myself.
Helping others, no matter how trivial, has small rewards.3 -

Is this a midwesterner thing? Because that would confuse the hell out of me and I'd think it was a trap
