I saw this on Oprah and thought it was pretty interesting, they said that most people now find there are so many rude people out there. 80% said this but 99% of those people said its not them
they also interviewed a store clerk and was so upsetting to hear how customers treated her, also waiters too and hearing what people do to them
Here are the questions that were asked to the studio audience to see if you are rude. At first i said oh i make sure i am not rude but was surprised by some things
Are you chronically late? i have to say i have a bad habit of being late
Have you ever typed an email while talking on the phone? i have done this
Have you ever interrupted a face to face conversation to take an unimportant phone call? I hate cell phones and hate when this is done, cant remember if i have done this but i usually have people tell me 'just pick up the phone' bc many times i dont. Usually if i pick up its for a reason
Have you ever gone through the supermarket express lane with more than 10 items? this is a pet peeve of mine and HATE when this is done
Have you let your dog relieve himself on a neighbors lawn? i have no dog
Have you ever stolen someones parking spot? NO i hate this too
Have you ever gossiped? yes
Have you ever taken someones food or drink from office refrigerator? NO
and here are some other things people said that they thought was rude and many people do
People texting while hanging out with you and having a conversation
not washing hands after using the bathroom
Talking on the cell phone when going up to a cashier, security at airport, while waiter is taking your order, or anything similar to this
Interrupting while someone is talking
chewing gum with mouth open

Re: Are you rude?
Are you chronically late? Never I am always early
Have you ever typed an email while talking on the phone? yes
Have you ever interrupted a face to face conversation to take an unimportant phone call? No, I actually never do this. Make it a point.
Have you ever gone through the supermarket express lane with more than 10 items? Nope, sometimes if I have 11 and no one is there I will ask if it's okay
Have you let your dog relieve himself on a neighbors lawn? i have no dog
Have you ever stolen someones parking spot? Nope
Have you ever gossiped? Of course ;
Have you ever taken someones food or drink from office refrigerator? Nope
and here are some other things people said that they thought was rude and many people do
People texting while hanging out with you and having a conversation. . don't do this w/o asking someone, or saying, sorry this will take a sec if it's important
not washing hands after using the bathroom. . gross! I will actually ask for soap if it's not there!
Talking on the cell phone when going up to a cashier, security at airport, while waiter is taking your order, or anything similar to this NEVER. If I am on the phone, i actually ask the person to hold on b/c I am checking out, or ask if I can call them back
