When you encounter someone rude do you think what could have happened in their day to make them that way?

@mlgen1037 Louise, you have a point. That is true but, there are times that something happens and put people in a bad mood and they do not think of what they are doing so let it all out on those that probably do not deserve it.

@mlgen1037 I had something happen today that I was on the sidewalk and then all of a sudden a car pulled up and sat on all the sidewalk. I was very angry because he did not think of people wanting to get by. So he moved a little and still parked on the sidewalk. What nerve he had. Why should people have to walk in the street to get killed while cars think it is ok to park on the sidewalk. They do that here where I live so much. I am so tired of it.

@Hannihar I agree, Hanni. If I am in that situation, what I will do is just take keep myself away from people in a while and get a breather so that I wont be mean or rude to others. It would be unfair to people to backlash on people just because I am having a bad day or something happened.

@Jessabuma That is what I would say.

@Hannihar

@Hannihar At the post office I do come across a lot of rude employees. I don't get why. They are paid well and with pension (when they're retired, here).

@infatuatedbby It is not much fun to encounter people in bad moods that treat a customer not so nice. I had that at the post office yesterday. There was only one person to deal with and she has been not so nice before and then been decent. This time she was not very nice.

@infatuatedbby I cannot tell you about that. The sad part when i went to mail something there was only one person and she was not very nice and that is sad. I have also dealt with her at times when she was nice. Who knows what happened with her before she came to work.

@arthurchappell You have a good point Arthur and I am sure they do not feel any better after they make others feel bad.

@Hannihar yes it is often how they cheer themselves up

@arthurchappell It does make sense. They make others feel bad around them and they laugh about it because they think they are so important to do this to others.

@Hannihar Quite true!

@DianneN You have a point there Dianne but human beings do not always think before they speak.

@DianneN I am also guilty of not thinking before I speak at times too and other times I just shut up.

@moichan That is true. It is hard to feel good when you are feeling frustrated about something and especially something that you did not do but are suffering from it.

@moichan I am very frustrated because this person at the post office by me must have done something because when I mailed three things only one got to its destination. Now, I have to resend again what I sent before.

@Hannihar time will pass. We'll just let them be

@shaggin That is a good way to look at it how you see it.

@vandana7 Thanks vanny.

@Hannihar I've heard that too. So, I usually let it go.

@just4him ok and thanks Valerie.

@just4him I hate rude people. Someone told me once maybe someone is in a bad mood because something happened to them so started to think about it.

@anamika161088 You could be very right on that.

@Icydoll So so true.
