I wish we would go back to being a little more formal in our dealings with people. It seems that as we've gotten more informal, we've also lost politeness and manners, at least here in the States. People think nothing of butting in line or having a phone conversation at top decibels while sitting in a restaurant surrounded by people. Common courtesy is almost seen as an archaic concept.
let me reassure you, even though we have tu vs. vous here, we still have plenty of rude people.
