NOW!
Yes, I want to talk to somebody....
NOW!
well since you asked so nicely, and politely...
Seriously. What is happening with this nation? Why aren't parents teaching their children common manners and courtesy? A please or thank you?
Or am I just one of the few left? One of the lucky ones whose parents drilled into their brains how to be courteous and treat people with respect.
I do find it quite hilarious how when people are trying to get something from somebody, they act in a rude and inconsiderate manner. People are more inclined to help someone if they are polite and nice.
And also- "NOW" girl ... FYI: the only person who can speak to me like that is my mother, and chances are she's only speaking to me like that because i'm being a dink and/or ignoring her. And that hasn't happened in about ... 3 years.
don't worry, I gave the "NOW" girl a nice and polite response, where I descibed to her how I didn't appreciate the way she was speaking to me.
and then she hung up on me.

i couldn't post them yet! CHILLLLLLLLLLLL
Sometimes in our daily stress we forget about little things like manners, but I agree, there's no excuse. I'm from Ontario (I liked your post about your trip, too bad about the motel) and I've noticed the same thing, but especially in the city (aka Toronto). Everyone is in such a rush that they can't even take the energy to hold the door for another milisecond for you. When I worked as a cosmetician I met a lot of ladies without manners (and got the feeling a lot of them thought they were better than me) but ladies listen up: Manners = free stuff or atleast better service.
