Today's Entitlement Trend

So many young people just go through ahead of you and let the door slam in your face. A simple "Hello" from the cashier when you are checking out at the grocery store, or another merchant is always appreciated. And it just makes you feel good too. In today's time, They rarely deliver even a "Thank you".

I feel compelled to say thank you to them. You never know when some one else is having a rough day. They may need a smile to change a single train of thought.

Disappointingly, it seems that the trend today is one of entitlement. I should feel blessed that they are allowing me to hand them my money. I forgot that they were doing me the favor. It seems like now you just get treated as if you are just the person paying the bill. That's all...no big deal, right?

Thank you Dr. Laura for letting me post my 2 cents!
