I love that you posted this! Why is it that people don't do some of these things more often, they really are so simple yet make such an inpact.

You'd think Number Four would be easy to do, yet so many times people in my building will look right at someone carrying heavy grocery bags or boxes, then pointedly let the door slam behind them, rather than wait those few extra seconds and give someone a helping hand.

Even more insulting is when they then stand only a few feet from the door and watch you try to juggle a heavy load and keys without offering to help.
