That goes for anybody -- like when you are holding a door as you go out, and you know how you hold it till the person coming through reaches over and grabs it, then they say "thanks" and you say "sure" -- well I HATE IT when you are doing that, and the person folds their arms, puts their head down and walks on through like they don't even see you -- there's no attempt to get the door, or even to say "thanks" -- I HATE THAT! And I must say that it is usually a woman that does it. There have been PLENTY of times when I have very loudly said "oh - sorry - didn't know I was your servant" -- you hit the nail on the head, lifesaver...that's just RUDE. Same goes for when you let someone out in traffic and they think they're too good to bother throwing their hand up to say thanks!
