First off, I would like to apologize for being away so long. I have been busy, and to just be honest..I haven't felt inspired to write a good blog for everyone. So by requests from a few, I am going to try digging deep with in to write something worth your reading. So please bare with me.
Recently, I moved back home, got a new job, and just have been getting in shape, but I have come to notice something that I find to be too prevalent to be noticing so often. I noticed how rude some people can be, and this is not just younger American society, but it ranges from young to old. I am not saying I'm the most upstanding, most respectful and most delightful citizen here in the United States, but I am saying that the encounters I have witnessed recently have made me stop and wonder what is going through these peoples minds. Now I know my blogs aren't complete without some examples so let me just share with you what I have witnessed, so you can make up your mind to see if I am just some hootie tootie Catholic girl, or if I may indeed be right.
My first time noticing this was when my family and I had a Sunday visit to Parker Dam. We have our towels, chairs and sometimes a shirt or two laying on the ground by our towels. Well my Parents, and Carrie went for a walk and i stayed behind to catch the rays of the sun Gods. While laying there listening to music I noticed a group of younger kids sitting near by. When they got up and walked to where there family was sitting they decided it would be cool to walk over all our towels with their sandy feet. Okay okay, I know they saw those sitting there, and they all saw that I was sitting there. I started to think, well that was rude, I'm sitting right here. Well a few moments later a few more of them decided to walk to the concession stand behind me. While walking there they decided it would be cool to walk all over my shirt and sweat pants I had laying by my towel. I decided I was pissed, not only did they walk over the towels, but they walked all over my clothes that i have to put on. WTF.
My second encounter with this was when I decided I should go down to shoot some hoops at the park near my house. While approaching the park I noticed a large group of kids ranging from about 6 to 14 sitting around talking. Upon getting closer to the basketball court, which happened to be where they were sitting I noticed a bunch of them were arguing, and among arguing was probably the youngest of the group having to be around 6. He was sitting on the bench clearly upset and almost crying. The older kids were egging him on/ making fun of him. He was mad at a girl for something who was probably around 10. When she came over to him to make fun of him some more this little boy yelled out, "Get away from me you fucking bitch" I was taken back by that...this boy was like 6 years old. It didn't take me long to figure out where this boy learned this from. The older boys in the group all started laughing and the oldest goes something along the lines of, "Hey you are right all girls are bitches, then told the girl to go make him a sandwich. I proceeded to walk to the furthest hoop to shoot. while doing that, they all decided it would be cool to play Knock out at another hoop. As they proceeded a boy got out by a girl. One of the boys go OMG you let a bitch beat you....a bitch.. a good for nothing bitch. The boy was so mad that he let a girl ..or in their words a "bitch" beat him. I was appalled by this, and if they were going to keep it up I was going to step in, but before I got my chance they all decided to go their separate ways.
The last event, annoys me more than anything. I work at a little ice cream place that also serves food..and just saying..we have AMAZING burgers. Well anyway this particular day was a Tuesdays and I was in the kitchen and we get a order for a burger with mayo, relish, and ketchup on the side with fries. We already had a bunch of orders in, so when the burger was ready for the order we just dressed the burger mistakingly without putting it on the side. She sent it back pissed off, but of course we apologized and made her a new one. As we were doing that, one of the girls in the front came back and said dont worry about htat order we did that yesterday to her too. Okay whatever. Well the next day i worked she came back asked for the same thing..but this time asked for Extra Crispy and she decided to mention, get it right this time becuase you never can. So we did it put everything on the side made her fries crispy. The next day I worked as well...guess who came back the lady..complaining that we never do anything right, that we need to start getting her order right. This time we made sure her fries were almost black that everything was on the side..and besides having ketchup cups..we gave her a packet. My sister was in the kitchen with me and decided she wanted to hand the order out since this woman always complains to us. Emily goes here is your order, if you have any problems with it let me know i cooked it personally. She gave her some attitude saying yeah okay, didnt look her in the eye and goes can i have a knife and emily goes its already on your tray! I was leaving around eight so I was going to start sweeping the dinning room, where she happened to be eating. while sweeping she did nothing but complain about our food, our building..everything. I was sitting there thinking wtf lady this is the 4th day you have came here, if we cant accommodate you why the hell do you keep coming. But I kept it to myself. All of the workers dread this womans arrival and she has been here for 9 staright days. They always come back to the kitchen saying omg shes back I dont want to wait on her. Shes rude to us and keeps coming back so wtf.
Some people really need to open their eyes to see that they will never be respected if they keep this battle of treating everyone else around you less than a human. Please open your eyes because the world is a cruel place, and i do beleive in karma. As to the younger youth in these events, they need to be brought up better, becuase they hve a rude awakening when they get out of high school.
Okay i think im done...im tired and hungry.
Peace ..sorry if it doenst make sense im too tired to proof read.
