Rude old people
Yes, I *am* enjoying being on a cruise ship and attending Open Source lectures - you've see a few posts here on the subject in the last few days, so this is something slightly less techie.

Why is it that some cruisers have to push into queues? Why is it that some of them are so inhumaising to the ship's staff? I know I'm not alone in my frustration. Lisa took a lunch tray
yesterday and a little old lady came up to the obvious queue and pushed in, in front of me and between us. "I'll see you in a couple of minutes" I said loudly to Lisa "some people obviously don't realise there's a queue here or in a desperate rush ...." and I glared. The old lady stepped back out of the line. And another lady of similar size and age just behind me approached me and said "I'm so GLAD you did that. Thank you"

Dear everyone, please tell me if I'm ever needlessly rude, inconsiderate, or even if I have bad breath one day. I don't want to be like the examples I quote, but I fear it's easier to slip than I would like, and I *am* getting older.

This is a page archived from The Horse's Mouth at http://www.wellho.net/horse/ - the diary and writings of Graham Ellis. Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
