World revolves around who?

Remember my post on selfish people? Here's another cathartic post on the same subject...

I know sometimes people can get kecik hati, frustrated or even angry when I don't pick up their calls or reply their sms immediately. Technology doesn't mean you're supposed to stick to your handphone/laptop 24x7. I wonder if handphone is supposed to be for my convenience or other people convenience. Because of handphone, work can call you and disturb your long-awaited-supposedly-relaxing vacation. Because of your handphone, people can call you and ask you to go somewhere and pick up stuff on your way home (or office). Because of handphone also hmmmm people can treat you like a walking atm bank. Another example, it's a good thing that with online banking you can pay your bills online, transfer money if you need to, and check your statements (and reconcile with quicken!). But also inconvenience if people treat you like a walking atm.

Example of selfish people...
"Bank in money NOW!"
"Pick me up NOW!"
"Do this ammendment NOW!"
"Buy this NOW"
"Pay this NOW"
"Reply email NOW"

Sigh... I wonder lah what's wrong with these people. They have this mindset thinking that the world revolves around them...
