Why do people not move when I say excuse me

Try "Diseased person! Coming through!"

Maybe you say it too softly, first time I say it softly second time I am firm and third time I push past.

If after being polite and they still don't move, just do this ...

I get that whenever I am in an elevator. People have an annoying habit of standing right in front of the elevator door. When you say "excuse me", some of them just stand there.

maybe they don't know you are talking to them specifically.

maybe they are not listening.

might be that tehythink someone else is in your way.

{@grayjessie2] i can sympathise as i find it happens a lotat work . i work in operating theatre and one day this week i had to ask surgeons to move as excuse me

Aww. Need a shoulder to cry on? Mine isn’t available. Sorry. Goodness. I wish problems this insignificant were what is on my mind to get help dealing with. Wow.

Because you don’t say it like “Well EXCUUUUUSE me!”…the way Steve Martin did.

That's when you don't ask so nicely and just tell them to get out of your way

Don't ask for permission

You got to get there attention. Sometimes they dont hear you, sometimes theyre purposely being ignorant. If they dont hear me i raise my voice but still try to sound polite about it. If they are being ignorant than i might stomp up to them making it obvious im coming by. Then say something like HEY! I NEED TO GO HERE. THANKS. Then ignore them as i do what i need and leave. Most square people will just stare at you like a deer in headlights and not do anything about it. It helps to be big and tall.

Hard of hearing or stubborn

I say Hellow Hi How are you, I was thinking pass but if you want me here..I can stand
And they just look at me as if they have entered a wrong pin at the ATM

Stiff arm to the neck
They will move

Dumb q to ask. It's impolite to not say excuse me or whatever. But it's also impolite to blow your nose, stare and burp in public.

You need to smile and have the smell of urine on you.

you have to be pushy. I get right up on them with my cart...I hate it when they block the whole damn aisle like they own it.
