With all due respect...

I beg to differ. As I watch my parents get older (late 60's and early 70's) there is a decline in their mental state, they become less reasonable and for the most part they become a little self-centered. I don't think the lady at Target realized that there was a line behind her as she was focused on her prices etc.

Perhaps she was on a fixed income and has to watch her pennies. We all need to respect the "seasoned" people...if we give them a chance we will learn from them. In Asia the elderly are respected and treated very well.

One day we may be the "old man or lady at Target" and my prayer is that I not get to the point that I annoy everyone younger than myself but if I do, they will understand.
