My usual bugbear of wondering what happened to common decency.
This morning after buying some things for lunch I was on my way out of the store and if front of me a man exits and on the way in is an elderly gentleman who looked somewhat instable, the first man lets the door just slam closed instead of keeping it open for the elderly gentleman.
Later that day I had several customers getting impatient when I went to open the shopdoor for mothers with prams, a customer in a wheelchair or an elderly lady. They had to wait maybe 30 second longer to be helped but got all huffy and started sighing annoyed. Those people don't seem to realize that when they act like that they won't get the service from me they would get if they were patient.
Am I old fashioned in opening a door or keeping a door open for someone else, especially those that might have difficulty using a closed/closing door? Even when I go into or exit a store and I see someone who wants to enter or exit I don't let the door slam in their face but try to keep it open for them.
/rant over.
