Manners...Sadly lacking these days ..

Re: Manners

I agree. It's the same when I'm driving and I pull in to let an oncoming car through, then they drive past without any acknowledgement whatsoever. Ignorant buggers.

Re: Manners

How bloody rude! I've seen people yapping on mobile phones in front of me at a check out and yes, I've said words to the effect "shut up and move on as you have a queue behind you" and, they have done! Mayhap it's been the way I've said it, but I do not suffer it, and nor should anybody else.

I'm probably one of the few people on the planet who does not possess a mobile phone any longer, because there's no place in my life for one, and won't allow one to rule me.

It is so ignorant of folk to answer a mobile when in the company of others for chit-chat, unlesss of course it is in an emergency.

Re: Manners

Agree with all comments, and well done Markey for speaking up. I sympathise with cashiers when the customer they're serving stays on their phone. The height of bad manners.

There are just so many selfish people around. It's all me me me

Re: Manners

Car drivers have the worst manners of anyone. They queue jump, don't wait and do not lift a hand in thanks. You can easily spot them in a supermarket car park

Re: Manners

I am often on the receiving end of mobile phone users at the check out. I haven't the nerve to tell them where to go as I might be hauled into the headmasters room (Managers!) but I do tend to slap the change or receipt into their held out palm! Sometimes they get the message but usually they are too engrossed in whatever "important" call they're taking!

Re: Manners

It's a pity you can't refuse to serve them until they stop the call.
