Decorum, manners and etiquette have been on the decline for some time. It shows up in numerous small ways, such as a customer service representative addressing a customer with whom they have never interacted by their first name, a gradual cheapening of the work place with increasing casual dress (and attitudes), people crossing at an intersection when they do not have the right of way, e-mails written with such abruptness and poor grammar as if they are angry missives from a poorly educated child, the airing of personal experiences in public that should remain private, the younger two generations' unearned sense of entitlement ad nauseum. This and much more form the underpinnings of how far too many people function that then gives rise to more vitriolic behavior.
