    ….when there is no intention of doing so?

    In every type of situation!

    Worse,when YOU call to follow up,and politely apologize for calling (since they were supposed to call),they say,”I’m the type of person,ya gotta keep trying me,eventually you’ll get me”…

    I don’t chase them.They won’t be reliable any further than that either.

    **THE BUSIEST PEOPLE GET BACK TO ME WITH PROMPT COURTESY AND RESPECT.**So,it’s not about who’s busier than whom.

    It’s an attitude,and it slows me down all the time.

    Yeah, t’is pretty nerve-wracking. But, again, NY isn’t exactly known for being polite, y’know.

    Are you an objective New Yorker or an out-of-towner living here like me?

    Yep. Down here with you. I’m pretty annoyed by the NYers manners.

    Silly out of towners.

    I politely object. New Yorkes DO have nice and polite manners. (Living proof!) It’s just that the impolite stick out – and that there are more impolite in N.Y. than polite in OOT.

    Eclipse: are you upset ’cause I said it and didn’t get back to you? I am really sorry for not informing you of what I was doing while I was doing it, but I was working on things the whole day but so far all I’ve got is either: “well yeah that is the mentality (about single moms and they didn’t give me any info or suggestions)” or “look in the papers/online/etc”

    Sorry again

    🙁 Zuberman! 🙁

    I take personal offense at this thread. I am a born and bred NYer and don’t enjoy being put down.!!

    I believe NY’ers are very fast paced and are extreme multi-taskers. I don’t think they mean to be rude and not get back to you I believe their lists are so long they can’t keep track of what they promised whom and they are just truly running behind and can never catch up. When they say “I’ll get back to you” they really mean “I’ll add you to my list and get to you when I get to you”. They truly intend to get to you somewhere down the list. If they really don’t want to be bothered NY’ers are straight forward enough to say “Sorry I don’t have time or really I can’t be bothered with that!”

    BPG, I am sure you didn’t mean that to be funny, but in context, it… is.

    Ladies and gentlemen,please read THE ENTIRE POST:

    i CLEARLY SAID THAT MANY BUSY PEOPLE DO GET BACK TO ME.

    I didn’t mean to offend anyone by using the word New York,and if the Mods approve,that word can be deleted.

    HOWEVER,while “the impolite” stand out in every situation,and it is related to being so fast-paced…there is MORE OF THIS in New York than out of town.

    Again,if you read my entire post,I wasn’t putting down “all New Yorkers” at all.

    Yossi Z._ Of course,I did not mean you!Chas V’sholom!

    Yochie,I don’t understand what you are saying,and if you are referring to the “You Are Beautiful” thread,it is NOT about EVERYONE.

    Yes, it’s what I’m refering to. In any case, why be picky. Everyone has beauty in some fashion / aspect. The famous story in Gemorah where a Tanna found beauty to a woman having a fitting name.

    Yochie,I will rephrase my title for you:

    WHY DO SO MANY BEAUTIFUL (HOLY,HOLY)YIDDEN FORGET TO CALL OTHER YIDDELACH BACK?

    Come on,you gotta like that one,sir.
