DAY 22- May Challenge

 
 
I get so annoyed by RUDE people.  
 
I am not rude, I am so polite and like to think I am a considerate person. I live in a small gated complex at the moment, its lovely and we have really nice neighbours. However, some of the other residents are quite rude, apparently it's a cultural thing? that is no excuse in my book. It doesn't matter what language you speak, you can always smile if someone holds open the gate for you or say good morning/hello.
 
Some of the residents leave rubbish around the pool (there are several bins!).
 
Others speak really loudly on cell phones (I don't need to hear your conversation do I?). I go to the pool to relax and read a book quietly, maybe have a little swim.
 
I was in the pool the other day, swimming up and down on one side out of the way (its quite a big pool) and about 5 children got in and started playing a game and screaming really loudly, they kept getting in my way so I couldn't swim.
 
I feel better now....rant over!
 
 
BTW - Thanks for all the recent comments and advice about job hunting. I have sent off some designs to card companies today. I don't think I am going to do the Etsy thing because it seems to complicated, living in California I have to get a Tax ID and add on sales tax, I wouldn't know where to start with packaging and pricing.
 
Anyway, one of the designs I have sent to card companies is this one below, called 'Jar of Hearts'

      Ha ha she says! Your artwork is amazing too. I'm thinking for my next challenge in June I might try and create artwork for song titles or lines...I could do requests?

      Ooh I am liking this challenge idea.. Not that I will be drawing, but I can suggest song titles/lyrics :) .. I would love to see more of your drawing.

      Agreeing on the respect part above, especially with something so simple as a smile or even a hello. So many times I say good morning, good afternoon and all I get back is a nod or they keep walking. I guess some people weren't raised with manners. I like my manners though, think I'll keep them :) xoxo

    All of those things would make me pissy, too.

      Glad it's not just me. My hubby is so chilled sometimes, nothing bothers him!

    Again, I agree - manners cost nothing but can make a huge difference if you don't use them.
