Happypappy, i could not agree more on the whole "good morning" thing! I make eye contact with everyone that crosses my path and either smile or say hi. I have had some mighty weird reactions, the best of which was a loud "fuck you". That was when i lived in NJ. FIGURES! Glad i am back in the midwest where I belong. I was working in manhattan for almost 20 years. A little pleasantry goes a long way. It can even make someone's day! You never never know what kind of hell someone could be going through, and it is our DUTY to be pleasant. That is the way I feel anyway. I am not some over the top do-gooder, but I am ALL ABOUT believing in karma. So, I guess you could say I am sellfish...lol!
And the whole door holding thing........my soon to be ex hubby is a huge door holder. He can only pretty much see outlines of people, cuz of an eye disease, but he holds the door for anyone, men or ladies. It is fucking AMAZING to me how many people, say, at a crowded gas station or something, will just keep walking through and not say a word. He has literally stood there for minutes! That pisses me off so bad. The best thing ever that has happened to him is that he was in a store, without cane. He accidentally knocked over a small display of something and started to try and pick up things, slowly because he cannot see well. I was down the aisle so i rushed to help him, but before i could get there this ASSHOLE started saying "wtf is wrong with you, r u a moron. You are going to pick that up and put it back where it was! Yada yada yada. My hubs waited until he was done and then told him "i am blind and very sorry I knocked it over". That shut his ass up. I do not know wtf is wrong with some people.
