#2 – Not Thanking You For Giving Way On The Road

Picture the scene. You can see a car 100 yards away coming towards you on a tight street. Courteously, you pull your car in behind the row of parked cars so the driver can pass. You wait patiently for the oncoming driver to go by so you can continue down the road. Obviously, she’ll raise her hand to thank you for giving way, won’t she? Not a chance! She just drives on by, not even looking at you, as if it’s her divine right to make you wait there without showing you the slightest hint of gratitude for your consideration. It isn’t her divine right though. She should thank you. But it’s too late. She’s gone and you’re left seething at her ignorance as she fades out of view in your rear view mirror.
