whaever happened to good manners?

[excelsior-1]

my gripe for the day.

call me old fashioned - but i was brought up to be well mannered and respectful.

i always wipe my feet, when entering a premesis, wherever and whenever i go, regardless of the weather. occsionally, that has resulted in someone behind me walking into me, because they have assumed i would not stop - as they don't.
i see, in wet weather, many damp footprints leading into a place because people don't bother.

also - i often hold doors open for people .. they walk straight in without even an acknowledgement, let alone a 'thank you'

normally - i just shrug it off however, both matters have happened quite a few times today while i was in town - and i guess it was the straw that broke the camel's back, and my blood just started to boil.

whinge over .. having cup of tea and cream cake to indulge myself now.

table manners!

in cafes, restaurants and even the canteen at work, when i see people chewing with their mouths open - also people talking with a full mouth - i get put off my meal.
