Hello readers!
Ok so I was in the car on Friday and mammy went in to get petrol. As I was in the car waiting for her to pay, I saw a man drilling signs for turf on the turf bins, the wire for of the drill was caught at an angle which would trip up anyone and everyone. An old lady was walking up to go the doors to the shop and this man didn't pull down the cable until she was after climbing over it!!!
Are manners dying out these days? Has a world of arseholes come upon us?
Another thing happened to me during the week that scared me just a little bit. I was in Subway by myself after class getting lunch and this lad asked me to put credit in his phone which I did. I didn't get a thank you or anything. then he sits at the table beside mine and asks me if I knew how to save a phone number into his phone while he was on the phone, which I didn't but proceeded to give him a pen and page o write it down. Again I received no thank you. I the went to the bus stop to get the bus home and this man turns up again asking me when the next bus to Dublin was which I replied was quarter to 3. He then asked me what time it was and I said 20 past 2. AGAIN I RECIEVED NO THANK YOU!!!! He continued on to ask me whether I knew when the next ferry to England was and I replied "no sorry". He then walked off in a huff because I didn't know. ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!!???? He then received a phone call from some poor fucker who this man screamed at saying he was going to kill him. I was terrified he was going to attack me if the bus was late. Honestly, it may seem a bit dramatic but if you saw how he was you would understand. Luckily the bus was packed and we got our own bus to where I live :) Maybe someone was looking out for me :)
Are the words 'thank you' dying out? Will there be a world where there is no thank you? Will it be like the Dothraki in Game of Thrones where we just take what we want and never show any appreciation for the effort of others?
It's a scary thought.
