In my experience it's the older people who hold the door longer than is necessary for me, and it is generally the older ladies who seem miffed if a door is not held... I think people in Midge and my age group can be pleasantly surprised (or slightly uncomfortable) about a door being held, but our generation certainly doesn't seem to expect it the way some older people do...emmohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16110893152717708067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5233058818245130072.post-89420680367690181132009-06-08T16:27:58.713-07:002009-06-08T16:27:58.713-07:00How can it be generational?

Unless I clearly am going to have trouble with the door (hands full or what have you), I would mostly just prefer that they keep on walking... This is probably somewhat generational, I suppose...emmohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16110893152717708067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5233058818245130072.post-8040060543171955432009-06-04T10:46:42.047-07:002009-06-04T10:46:42.047-07:00I tend to hold the door open for people at work be...I tend to hold the door open for people at work because there seems to be a lot of infirm people at the courthouse. <br /><br />I've also noticed that there is a direct correlation between me wearing heals and men holding the door for me. <br /><br />And I'd be lying if I said I didn't like it when people generally hold the door for me.Midgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13789194456747856830noreply@blogger.com
