I admit my wife's health problems have me on edge. I'm a little touchy. But I have always been a guy that says what I feel is right. You see I'm the guy that will tell the young kid that parked his motorcycle in the handicapped spot that they are losers. I feel I don't need to call a cop when the kid is standing in the McDonald's line in front of me. There are older handicapped people that needs those spots.
Unfortunately I'm the guy that will say something when an older male is being rude and obnoxious to a young waitress about something that isn't under her control. You don't need to be rude, and yell just because you are buying the meal. People have feelings and to make any waitress cry is over the top.
Yeah I'm the guy that will say you need to get a job to pay your bills. Yeah I'm the guy that will tell the young kid to go to college and get an education. And I'm the guy to stand up to anybody that treats me or my family like s*%t. I'm going to tell them the way it is, in public or otherwise.
In this world we need to treat people with the common courtesy. Don't go out of your way and just say you were looking for the best opportunity. You can get good opportunities in life without walking all over people. You can get a good parking space without denying a handicapped person one.
You can get good service without berating and demeaning the person behind the counter. And nobody wants to work for free and not get paid. This is life, this is your world. Make it a little better place and don't be afraid of standing up for yourself.
Russ, Wow it sounds like you really speak your mind. I agree with being positive, creating our own opportunity and speak my mind. I've learned over the years to be mindful about being diplomatic about what I say and who I say it too.
