Are you rude?

You rarely steal candy from toddlers.

You don't trip people on crutches anymore.

You can't even remember the last time you made someone cry.

All in all, you could do a lot worse. You might not be in the running for a Good Samaritan of the Year Award, but you're a pretty decent person.

#4-swearing & #6(rude co-workers) bother me a lot. I'm not saying I don't curse but saying "F-ing this, and F-ing that...well, get a thesaurus and learn a word a day and stop being ignorant.

Actually, swearing is a habit...

#6--Well, you know some coworkers have 'issues' so they can't say hi...others never shut up (think Milton the Squirrely guy in Office Space...)

I like it when people use bad language if they are trying to be hilarious.

Cute article. However, most of it seems like common sense. I work in a school, so no cursing (even on my lunch break). No phone callse unless I'm on break when I am by myself in my own classroom. I guess I'm polite because I don't break any of those rules.
