Thoughts

It has occurred to me that elderly people get crabby a lot. Why is that? What is the problem? Does aging frustrate people? Yesterday I went to buy flowers from the Schulze's location across from Langes. I simply asked this older lady if she knew how the pricing thing worked and she looked at me with this "are you stupid" gaze and said, "Uhh, I don't work here." I wanted to say, "DUH, I know that." How rude! I asked a simple question... I did not say, "Hey you look like you work here. Can you explain this pricing to me?" Common courtesy people, that's all I ask for. RESPECT goes both ways, old people. If you want my respect, you need to give me some in return.
