I am very old school about things like this, I believe in proper manners when in public and it really irks me when people want to act like that in public, especially in restaurants! Yesterday while shopping in a boutique a rather loud obnoxious man starting making political comments which I found to be very offensive and inappropriate, I left the store without buying a thing because of this customer but before I left I couldn't help myself from mumbling under my breath "I wish you'd shut up" and another customer heard me and smiled her agreement, so it was nice to know I wasn't alone in finding Mr Loudmouth annoying.Kitty Scrapshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15253502223133660506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688951980399020435.post-88445762271986918632008-11-08T22:36:00.000-05:002008-11-08T22:36:00.000-05:00Wow, what a great reminder to check your conversat...Wow, what a great reminder to check your conversations.

I often find that people don't watch what can be over heard in public or they just don't care. I esp. get upset when young adults cuss in public without regard to any children who may be near...or adults for that matter too (It's offensive to me!).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688951980399020435.post-61528502815844297922008-11-08T08:18:00.000-05:002008-11-08T08:18:00.000-05:00I used to sub a lot before teaching full time.

I guess those people weren't as sensitive to the subject because they were in the big middle of it. Let me just say that I'm so proud of you for going to eat alone though. Not me. It would be take out for me.<BR/><BR/>Hope you are not too sore today. I am known to fall on occasion too. It's so embarassing.Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05728612514516285320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688951980399020435.post-77861184949605920842008-11-08T06:55:00.000-05:002008-11-08T06:55:00.000-05:00What a great reminder to always watch our words an...What a great reminder to always watch our words and who they may affect! <BR/><BR/>So sorry to hear you fell while enjoying a nice walk.... hope you are able to put your feet up and rest it off today.<BR/><BR/>So glad you and the students are bonding.... it's great for them to have the same sub!<BR/><BR/>Have a super weekend!!!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17776094615073808040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688951980399020435.post-52776910146964023702008-11-08T02:50:00.000-05:002008-11-08T02:50:00.000-05:00Yikes, I hope you are okay after the fall.

They are fortunate to have such a loving sub!<BR/><BR/>People do not clue in to how far their voices carry and to the fact that others do not want to hear their conversations! Ick! Definitely not what you want to hear while you're trying to eat!!<BR/><BR/>I'm trying to convince DK that we should have Chinese for dinner tonight...but it will be take out!<BR/><BR/>Yikes! I hope you weren't hurt with your fall! Take a nice long bath and soak those sore muscles!!<BR/><BR/>Hope you find lots of treasures at the tag sale tomorrow!Raehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10301585140754956363noreply@blogger.com
