Public People

I decided to take my wife out to dinner and then to the circus for Valentine's day. Well we had an okay time, but it amazes me how crazy people real are. I mean we first stopped at Garfield's to get something to eat. We went in the front door and hostess was there. She asked us smoking or nonsmoking. I told her I wanted smoking. She then showed us to our table and seated us. Not one time did she smile, say have a good night or nothing. We sat at our table waiting for our waitress and wait and wait and wait. Finally after about 15 minutes of waiting she comes to our table and gets our order. At least she smiled and was friendly. My wife and I set waiting and watching the Daytona 500 on the big screen TV. The next event was the most shocking event of the whole night. As we sat there an older woman from another table had gotten up and was headed towards the bathroom. She didn't notice the step down that was in front of her and fell to the floor. I seen it right when it happened, and started to get up, when her daughter and grandson went to help her. The shocking thing was that right after the woman fell and her daughter was trying to help her, a waitress actually stopped and walk around the two and never said a word. The bar tinder who was less then four feet away turned and acted like nothing ever happened. The woman did get up and continued onto the bathroom and then returned to her table.

What in the world is wrong with people now days. There is no common curtsy anymore. I mean the poor woman could of really gotten hurt. It seemed like nobody, except me and her family, even cared. Personally if it would of been my mother in that restaurant that fell ,and nobody like one of the staff would came to help or at least ask to help I would raised all kinds of hell. I mean it is not uncommon to put up with rude hostess or bad waitresses, but to just ignore somebody how could be hurt and is helpless, well that is exceptable.

I think this world really needs to take a step back and look at it's self. I never knew that it was this bad until to night. It is all about themselves now days and nobody cares about other people. I mean it!!! The next time you are out somewhere do something really nice for a stranger for no reason. Then stop and look at them they my say thank you, but the look on there face will be of surprise or even shock. I hope that this isn't the future that we headed for, because if it is then we are all in a lot of trouble.
