Then I don't say thank you unless they are cute, in which case I just might smile and give them a look. Unless it is one of those cases when I am on my cell phone and headed toward the elevators, meaning I am too busy telling the person on the phone something like "oh gosh I'm headed toward the elevator so may lose you in a minute" to really hear someone say thank you and/or say it myself. Although a smile still could happen.Sharky Dowdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12600149936694327431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-719546359213487483.post-73864610685832063752008-09-19T20:41:00.000-04:002008-09-19T20:41:00.000-04:00*snort* I use the same tactics with "God bless you...*snort* I use the same tactics with "God bless you" after sneezes. Usually when confronted with this selfsame predicament at my favorite chinese restaurant I thank the 'holder' after the first door and figure the second is implied, albeit with a sheepish smile.derfinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11146774907696083985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-719546359213487483.post-30143564526704047952008-09-19T17:07:00.000-04:002008-09-19T17:07:00.000-04:00definitely no need for a second "thank you" for th...definitely no need for a second "thank you" for the second door. how bout when people are walking out and hold the door for you?
