I felt the need to personally thank the driver of the subway train every time we took it. I thought it would be rude and impolite to not do so.
It must have been so embarrassing for my mom. The driver cabin had tinted windows and I demanded the driver lowered them so I could thank him lol. I was like 5 or 6.
Similarly, I was taught to give my seat to the elderly or pregnant women. One time, as soon as the door opened and an old looking man entered the wagon, I bolted from my seat and ran to him, grabbed him by the hand and brought him to the empty seat.
Thanks god I didn't do that to a fat lady or my mom could have died from embarrassment.
