It does kinda bother me when you hold the door for someone and they pass through without saying thankyou. I don't think I've ever had this happen with the older generation.
When I was in England, I was pretty surprised (not overly offended because I thought it might nbe cultural), when most Hindu people rarely said thank you. Over here I only notice that with some younger Black women.
Anyone else notice this type of behavior on a cultural basis?

Yes............Chinese............When you go into a carry out the usual greeting is: 'Wot yu wan?'
When you order is ready 'Flied Lice'...........No prease or fankyou at either end of the transaction.
