Petty but it's stuck in my mind.
My mum is retired but very lively and chatty. She loves talking to people out and about and just making conversation. People do seem to warm to her too, mainly.
Anyway went on family hol recently and she started chatting to older lady and her daughter, who was maybe in her thirties. Mum was being really chatty but passport queues and luggage probs were making everyone a bit grumpy so we were trying to get her to hurry up. The woman's daughter looked a bit tired and exasperated too.
We then bumped into them again at the airport on the way home. Mum said a cheery hello and daughter kind of visibly rolled her eyes and gave us a sarcastic smile!!
Aibu to think that's pretty bloody rude? My mums not stupid, she takes social cues and was hardly going to accost them?!
