The door holding I am not so bothered by. But kind of the opposite and this always gets me. I will be leaving a restaurant and first threw the door. Being polite I ill stop and hold the door usually for my family. Then every one behind my family (these are total strangers) hurries to get through the door while I hold it. Mean time my family is out in the parking lot waiting on me.
