Really Rude Behavior

#1 Postby Janice » Thu Mar 23, 2006 9:16 am

This is basically when you leave your house and head out amongst people.

What is one really rude behavior you see in a person and wonder who taught them manners as a child.

Me..................People who throw trash, diapers and bottles, etc out of moving cars. They do it on the roads while the cars are moving and in streets with cars all around them. Can't these people wait till they get home to throw these things away. My yard, 3 blocks from the beach, is full of bottles and potato chip bags, etc. that people tossed while walking home.

i have to say i agree with that!!

i'll add....people who feel like it is their duty to force you to listen to rap/bass-playing music very loudly from their car...so loudly you can hear it 3-4 city blocks away and the house shakes.

Oh I whole heartedly agree with you about that booming stereo crap! That is so disrespectful in my opinion. Someone needs to outlaw that stuff. When they are booming I betcha they can't hear a train or anything else.

Loud rap music in cars.

It bothers me when people have the stereo volume sky high. If I can feel it in my chest, it's too loud. Also, people who just toss trash everywhere. I make sure i find a garbage can to put my bottles, bags, and all that in.

these people then complain that they can't hear later on in life.... well hello Mr. Obvious!

Drivers that speed sit on your tail and then speed up to get around you when all they want is the next exit or the fast food place.... Well hello there is nothing to rush about... usually you'll hit the lights if you rush!

Or Vice Versa... those that creep down the road! if you are that scared driving then take city transportation!

along with what pojo was saying, the people who speed past you to get around you, only to slow down and creep along in front of you...

I absouletly HATE and I do mean HATE ( I dislike a lot of people) people who are RUDE to people working retail :x ESPECIALLY in the grocery stores. I worked retail grocery for 20 years and to have someone chew my butt out for being out of a sale item :x 99.99% of the time the warehouse was OUT of the merchandise and these JERKS would blame it on US for being out.

To this day, I DO NOT tolerate rude people in the store, if I hear someone giving a clerk a hardtime, I'll step up to them and ask them KINDLY at first to knock it off, if they DO NOT......I'll raise my voice a *little* and simply show them my badge 8-)
