Should this bother me?
This has been driving me nuts ever since I started working at my current employer. We share an office building with about 6 or so other businesses. All of our doors have handicapped releases, which are those buttons that you can push and have the door swing open for you. Every public door, like the main lobby doors, the bathroom doors, etc, have them.
Here's what drives me nuts. Every morning, without fail, I see someone who is NOT handicapped in the slighest way push the button and then wait for the door to open for them! This absolutely infuriates me! Those buttons are not there to make your life easier, you lazy fuuuks, they are there to assist the handicapped! Expend a little energy and open the goddamn door yourself! Don't take advantage of the handicapped amenities!
What really annoys me is that many times they will stand there, waiting for the door to slowly swing open, while others (like me) stand behind them waiting.
Now, I should say that I am not handicapped, nor are any of my family or friends....so I'm not taking this as a personal offense. I'm not sure this should really bother me or not, but it annoys me to no end. So....should it? Or should I just let it go? I dunno about your peoples....but it just seems wrong to me.
