Easy Poll: Do you hold the door open for people?

I just held the door open for serveral ppl at my job.... some people said thanks, other just kept up in there converstaion like i was the offical door opener and it was my job and the rest didnt do a thing.

people are dumb and should be taught a lesson.

Re: Easy Poll: Do you hold the door open for people?

I definitely do. For the most part people say thanks, but there are some really bratty kids out there who just run through like it is expected.

Re: Easy Poll: Do you hold the door open for people?

I usually do - when people do not say thank you - I usually say very rudely to them, You're welcome.

Re: Easy Poll: Do you hold the door open for people?

I do and always feel the need to say your welcome if they don't say thanks, so I guess I am not doing a good deed since I am looking for gratitude.

Re: Easy Poll: Do you hold the door open for people?

i always hold the door- and for the most part, people say thank you.

I've found that MEN in my own age group are least likely to say thank you --- it happens a lot at school.

Re: Easy Poll: Do you hold the door open for people?

I always do, but there are certains times when people don't say thanks and it makes me so mad, but I guess I'm being the better person.

Re: Easy Poll: Do you hold the door open for people?

I do it a lot out of common courtesy. For the most part, I think people are appreciative.

Exactly. It's about showing people they have horrible manners!

I don't think it's a gratitude thing as much as it is a courtesy thing. I hold the door for you, as a courtesy - at least have the same courtesy and acknowledge my action. We are not androids.

If they don't say thank you I say, 'F u you mother-f-er, if you were dying from dehydration on the side of the road I wouldn't give you a glass of water...'

Re: Easy Poll: Do you hold the door open for people?

That's great...the best is if someone steps in front of you or bumps into you and they don't say anything I say 'excuse you!'
