[QUOTE="Fran, post: 218717, member: 3"] I'm really surprised that so many of you see rude behavior. I am surprised often at the courtesy of strangers especially in NC. I have seen so many strangers go out of the way to help someone who is struggling with packages or doors. Maybe I don't see all the rudeness. I see it here and there and feel sad for someone who can't find a reason to do their job or live their life with courtesy. I am surprised with the amount of thoughtfulness and common courtesy I see every day. The handicapped parking thing is a peeve. Both my parents had a sticker and if they weren't in the car, it was not used. Not that it isn't tempting. I just figured that I could loose my ability to walk if I used that sticker. (old catholic school guilt rears it's head) Negative karma or something. I believe we get back what we put out. Maybe not right away but eventually. I'll keep looking for people to do the right and human thing and hopefully I won't see any of the chronic ugliness that you see. Of course, it has to start with me. Somedays I'm not as inclined to be polite as others but I try to keep my lips zipped and offer to do something kind to balance out my ugly mood. [/QUOTE]
