I mean, holding the door for ppl, letting them get ahead of you in line at the grocery store if you have 83 items and they have 2, letting ppl be a few minutes late to strict appointment times, donating my time and money to charities, I’d say my karma is pretty high. What my post is about, is ppl taking that for granted. I donated about $1000 to a local PVD charity, and didn’t get an acknowledgment, only a letter for tax purposes. I don’t donate for attaboys, but it would be nice to know that the charity received the funds, not just ignore it. In my business, my time is money, so when we say please arrive at 10am, and it’s 10:05 and we send a message asking where you are, you shouldn’t say, just leaving, be there in 10 minutes. Maybe I’m just too high strung in my platitudes about being a genuine nice person, that I feel others should reciprocate.

Why are you entitled to others being nice to you? It goes both ways

No, if someone is kind, you as a decent human should acknowledge it, but you are showing how some think, that’s clear.
