I see that Dave hasn't updated in a couple of days so I thought I'd share one of my recent irritants with you. Every once in awhile I get a wrong number call. I really don't mind them since I myself occasionally misdial. What I mind is when the fool on the other end offers no apology for their mistake! Sure, they're a little embarrassed. But all the better to say, oops, sorry! because I'll probably never meet them. When this happened last weekend, I had half a mind to call this person back (via the magic of caller ID, another reason to apologize since I know who you are) and request said apology. Is it too much to ask? Is mild politeness disappearing from our culture?
