I've Paid My Money, So I'm Entitled



Just so there is no misunderstanding, I'm a workamper and currently working at a destination park. I'm not afraid of work, actually I enjoy it. So here's my question. Does anybody have any common courtesy or any sense of decency anymore. I can truly understand why children act the way they do. The parents don't or won't discipline them when they act wrong or do wrong. Why? Because the parents don't act any differently then the children.

I think I know some of the problem. Its somewhat expensive to stay here so people take the attitude “I've paid my money so we can do whatever we want to do”. Case in point, helping out at the pool 3 women came floating by on their tubes all with assorted beverages in their hands. Passing no less then 3 signs stating no beverages allowed within 4 ft. of the pool. When asked, politely I might add they needed to get rid of their drinks #1 threw hers in the trash, #2 tossed hers up on the deck for people to walk around and drain on the deck, and lastly Lady #3 wanted to argue and went looking for somebody higher up to complain to. The whole time she was arguing she was standing right next to the pool and continuing to drink. Seeing that the higher up wouldn't budge she finally threw it in the trash, I think she drank it all anyway. She went to sunbathe with the other two.

Or how about the RV'er that pack up to leave and thinks the fire pit is the trash can, although some will at least bag the trash and just leave it sitting there for us to throw away. Its not like they pass by the dumpster as they leave. How will the kids ever learn right from wrong when parents won't teach any manners.

I had to pack up the 5th wheel and leave the park to have some work done today. People parked next to us had their golf cart and child's tricycle parked in front of my 5th wheel. At 9:30 I had to get the park manager to move the cart so I could hook up and leave. Why? They were still sleeping, except their 3 year old who came out to watch us and to let us know to be quiet because her parents were still asleep. What's wrong with people?

I really don't know what to say, other than. This seems to be one of the reasons this country is going to hell. It's the Entitled Age. I've paid my money so get out of my way. You can clean up after I leave. Like I said I'm not afraid to work but come on people clean up after yourselves and teach your kids some manners.
