Message:: [QUOTE="andrew289, post: 581564, member: 6463"]It must be my military training or maybe it was law school but I was brought up to respect all rules and those that made them. Sure, I might not always agree with them but I never thought "it really didn't matter to me" or that I had the right to pick and choose which rules I could and could not "bend." That was not open to interpretation. I respected and followed all rules equally. Common sense would tell a reasonable person that if you don't have an account at a bank ... don't go asking for rolls. That is a service that is reserved for customers. It never ceases to amaze me why people continue to do this ..I mean duh ..it's only common sense. DeOrc - you took my examples to litterally. Those are all examples of rules that people "bend" by coming up with some sort of rationalization that makes it alright to do in their own minds.  Camaro - there are no minor rules and yes, I would not give them change or I give them ones so that they could get change at the laundry. It's not my responsibility as a bank teller to help them get their clothes cleaned. When people place themselves above the rules and start deciding what to follow and what to ignore..that's what I take issue with. Apparently, I'm in the minority and that's cool. We all do what we gotta do.[/QUOTE]
