Be kind and considerate with your criticism...
It's just as hard to write a bad book as it is to write a good book.
~ Malcolm Cowley

So I have been doing some reading about expectations and how to manage your own expectations of people and events. Basically, some of what I have read uses negative interactions with strangers as an example. These authors say that you shouldn't expect a complete stranger to be kind or considerate to you. They don't even know you.
Maybe. But I hate random rudeness. It doesn't make sense. Targeted and intentional rudeness based on one's experience with another person... now that makes complete sense to me.
