Sydney’s behaviour so far.
Well, let’s see…. the business hub of Australia – where the elite of GEN Ys live, where the average age of the city’s population is 32yrs and most of whom are university educated, financially comfortable and sophisticated. A lecturer quoted that to our class not long ago. Sounded exciting, but why is it that the city is so darn annoying sometimes!
trafffic -grr. prices -grrr. buses – grr. trains – grr and seriously PEOPLE ya’ll need to show those pearly whitse once in a while. And, for heaven’s sake, a ‘thank you’, ‘welcome’, ‘excuse me’ or look at someone in the eye when you are talking them is not that difficult! Ok, and so I sound like i want to live in a fantasy land filled with perfectly mannered people. I’ve been very quick to learn (but not fully accepted) that being in the biggest and most expensive city in Australia means that people are tired from working so hard- to pay off their ridiculously priced rented harbour side apartments and extravagant lifestyles, therefore they will mind their own business, look after themselves first, and if that means being harsh – well, they will be harsh. I say bring it on!
