Awkward People

Sometimes I wonder if people are born awkward or whether some naturally gravitate to that preference. I don’t include anyone who stands up for what’s rightfully theirs, but I do mean the group of people who see everything from their point of view and don’t believe anyone else could possibly be right. People who ‘tut’ at the salesperson who is learning and is delaying them by seconds. People who put their feet up on the seats on trains and buses and have to be asked to put them down so you can sit down. Then they do so begrudgingly. People playing music so loud everyone around them hears it. Having business conversations on mobiles which no-one around them is remotely interested in. There seems to be an endless supply of incidence and in the fast world in which we live, they seem to be increasing in frequency. Maybe I’m just getting old !
