Where's Your Manners?

Hi Guys~!

Yes, today im gonna talk about manners, its a very common thing, but people usually forgets about them. And the sad thing is that some people dont know that there is such things as manners.

Now, im a very very easy-going kinda person when we're friends, i dont need you to say "Please" or "Thank You" every time you need something from me, or took something from me. That's if we're friends.

So the other day, i was in class. (Learning Nail Art) and i was in the 4-D art class, i was pretty excited about it. So all we needed is a black paper, acrylic colours, brushes and tissues!

So this girl (whom i did not know at all) did not bring tissues. and she said to me.  P/S: The conversation is in mandarin (just so you know...)

Girl: Give me a tissue. (In a commanding tone)
Me: (Got taken aback) oh.... *Hands over a piece of tissue*

And guess what?! she did not even say Thank You.. of course i was quite angry that time and i wanted to say to her after handing over the tissue "Oh here you go! You're so damn welcome!" but of course, since she only speaks mandarin i guess she wouldn't understand it.

I'm not a selfish kind of person, i understand its just a piece of tissue. but hello! these are basic manners, if she wants one, can't she just ask nicely? i guess i wouldn't be so mad if she said Thank you after that. but she didn't. I mean, even if she didn't ask for it and maybe somehow i noticed that she doesn't have a tissue, i would automatically give her one piece to her.

But my question is, how can a person not know even the very basic manners?

• The magic words: "Please and Thank you."

Or should i switch my question to how can parents not teach manners to their children?? because its so important that, it should not have slip out of their minds! i mean already there are so many people i've met that doesnt have enough manners.... 

• people don't hold the door open for people behind them. 
• or press the open door elevator button for people who's coming in. 
• people who rush into elevator/train without waiting for others to come out first. 
• people who don't say sorry when they accidentally hurt you.

Loads of other stuff, but i have had never seen someone like her. Believe me, i was tempted to say to her, while handing over the tissue "You know, it would be nice to say please when you need something from someone." or "could you say please?"

but i dont want to sound stuck up and scare her and make her think that im not friendly, because these kind of things will never sound friendly and gentle, no matter how much effort you put in it.. because its kind of sensitive i think.. plus having ANYONE telling you your faults is never a good feeling. 

so i hope you people out there, i don't care if you're a parent, sibling, teacher or FRIEND. if you know people who are like that, you need to start teaching them manners. Because they might get bashed up if they are so rude...

=D Byeeeeeee!
