Never hurts to be a little nice. Its sad to say that not all are kind. Time or feet does not matter. Only thing that really matters is treat others as you would want to be treated.

I agree — more minutes, more feet. Yet there’s a flipside: I’ve talked with coworkers who feel obligated to hurry in order to lessen the inconvenience on the door holder, so the courtesy of a long-distance door hold becomes more work than opening the door for themselves.
None the less, if I’m going to make an error, I prefer to err on the side of courtesy.

I’m a door holder. I can’t help it. I’m not sure if what the ideal distance is for the door hold, but I’ve held it so long a few times that it got awkward. Oh well…
