Common Decency

At one point in time several generations ago....
Actually let me stop there because it should still be alive today. 
CHIVALRY!!!
It is NOT dead and it never did die it just isn't taught anymore.

It really should be shown to our children that
  • Doors should be opened for women and elderly people. (Yes, it is frustrating when they are rude or don't say thank you but it is worth it)

While you may not want to miss work and skip out on pay, we understand that; however we are frustrated for many reasons you seem to be forgetting. Suzy has a child at home with an autoimmune disease that can cause her to fall VERY ill even though you only have the sniffles. Dean has a deep fear of germs because he is hospitalized each time he gets sick. His body is unable to fight the disease off like yours can do.
