That seems so odd. I generally do hold doors open for people, but I don't do it for their gratitude, I just do it to be nice. How come people get so butthurt for not being thanked for menial, insignificant tasks that they weren't asked to do? #awkward I mean, again, I hold doors, and I DO thank people for doing it, but I can't imagine getting upset about someone not thanking me or whatever.
