I swear I'm so pathetic sometimes. I'm very quick to say, "Oh, it's okay" when somebody apologizes to me. Whether they step on my foot, bump into me while rushing out of the elevator, snap at me, or whatever else they'd apologize for, the answer is still "it's okay". Maybe I'm just too 'nice' and I'm thinking of other people's feelings. I can't just have someone apologize for something and then be like, "No, It's NOT okay!" and then have there be bad blood between us. However, thinking like that is just stupid. Most of the time, this exchange happens between me and a customer at work, which means that:
A. They're not my friend
B. They probably won't even remember who I am the next time they come in
C. Who cares if they're mad at me
Unfortunately, for some odd reason, I do care if complete strangers are mad at me.... I don't understand it at all. Maybe, I just shouldn't say anything and have the person who's doing the apologizing guess what I'd say or what's going on in my mind. But, shouldn't you say something after someone says "sorry" to you? Agh, Why must I be so nice and care so much? They're just strangers.
