fair do's with situations like your wifes .. I just think most folks don't understand the amount of filth that is on their shoes that they pay no mind to and track through a home
I'm so anal about the chair thing it even irks me in restaurants ... I have a place I frequent that has killer homemade soup on their salad bar .. I ( on my way to the salad bar ) will push people chairs in that they leave out .. .I don't get it .. these idiots know others are there and will be walking up to the salad bar as well but they still just push themselves away from the table and leave the chair so all they have to do is sit their lazy ass back down when they get back to the table
jerks
It does seem as if many people are completely oblivious to their own actions or lack there of. I like to think they are so overwhelmed by their own issues that they have no ability to think about others....but then, maybe they are just plain rude and inconsiderate.
Before I retired, a coworker who workeswing-shiftft, would use my desk in the evening. That wouldn't have been a problem except he'd leave a mess and make changes to my computer. Finally, I kicked him out of my office. I arranged for him to have is own desk and computer in a storeroom where he could make all the mess he wanted. Good thing too, because he was caught downloading and saving inappropriate files (porn) on his computer. It is crazy what some folks do at work....especially considering we worked for a K-12 school district. He lost computer privileges for three years....which just made more work for me because I had to do his work which required the use of a computer, such as ordering supplies, submitting work orders and keeping various logs. Aside from being somewhat stupid, he is a nice guy. He still works for the district. Hopefully, he learned his lesson and stays on the straight and narrow these days.
