HERE, THERE, EVERYWHERE...

Now i am more convinced than ever (not that i need anymore convincing) that some people are simply just allergic to being polite. Sometimes, it even looks like they go out of their way to be rude. How hard does it take to be polite or at least a little nicer? It won't kill and won't even cost anything. I have to admit that there is a possibility that some of these rude people are nice and respectful towards their friends, family and/or acquaintances but to me that means nothing if they cannot find it in them to be polite to others. Just because you don't know someone does not justify you to be rude to them. Especially, but not limited to those in the service industry, you have to be courteous to the customers and to not look like the angel of death while dealing with customers because that is your job! If you don't like to deal with people, then maybe it's high time you look for another job that does not involve dealing with people. Okay, again i have to admit that maybe this attitude is caused by stress with having to deal with all sorts of customers and their behaviours which sometimes can be ridiculous but do not take it out on others! And you have to bear in mind that sometimes customers act ridiculously due to the fact that they don't know what to do or how to go about doing something which is why you are there in the first place which is to assist these customers. You can't expect people to know everything. But then again, it seems that these rude people are always in a bad mood one way or another and always finding faults with others just so they have excuse to be rude. Some don't even need reasons. Like i said, maybe they are allergic or simply incapable of being polite!
