Doors

Here is the deal with doors

Hold the door if

• I am two feet from the door- If i am clearly headed to the door than i obviously would like to go in it. There is no reason to let go of the door if i am right behind you. I am sure it would not kill you to be two seconds later for whatever you are doing. I am sure its not that important if you NEED to be there within those two seconds


• You see me near by- DON'T BE STUPID! If you can see me standing there why would you just walk in. Thats just being rude.


• If I have something in my hands-I am a rather small girl, so if I am carrying a box I would quite like it if you could just hold the door open for me. Whatever happen to chivalry guys? I clearly cannot open the door if i am holding something such as a box.


• If the door needs to be unlocked- I live in my campouses dorm and I need a key to open my main door and my floor door. Today I was walking in not more than a few seconds from this girl. It was obvious I was entering. She just walked out. So I had to take my key out and unlock the door. Now I may sound lazy, but it's just if I am clearly coming in and you know the door needs to be unlocked...why cant you hold it?


• If I look mad.- When a person is angry its always nice to try to cheer them up.


• The door is heavy- As I mentioned before I am a small girl. Heavy doors ARE hard for me to open. Have you ever gone somewhere and the door was alot heavier than you expected? Isnt it annoying?


• When the person has a child-I used to work in the mall and I would watch people try to squeeze into the doors with strollers, bags, and small childern at hand. People would just let the door go in their faces. Why would you do that...

When to not hold the door

• I am far away from the door- If I am more than ten feet from the door please do not hold it for me. I feel like i am an inconvience to you if I take my time walking to the door now. Now I am forced to run. Thank you for your kindness...but no thanks.


• If I should not be going in it-Dont tease me! If i am not allowed in dont let me in. Or if you look dangerous DONT LET THE PERSON IN! I would never let a random stranger into your house...Why would you let one into mine?
