Apparently they have been told to be nicer when talking to "temple guests" at the temples. The temple now has an "assigned" worker who is directed to thank members for attending upon exiting the temple. Of course this is in direct contrast to my experiences where they couldn't wait to run off members- I was waiting (sitting) in the men's dressing room after doing a session and two workers came by to tell me exit outside. -I'm waiting for my Pop, I told them. -No, you can wait for him outside.
Also, my mom told me that she and some other older ladies carpooled to do some temple sealings. When they were through, all of them were invited by temple workers to relax and enjoy SITTING inside the Celestial Room. I asked her several times if she had done an endowment session and she assures that she did not.
I do believe that the church has been notified that temple workers have been quite gruff in the past (and I always thought that there might be nice people volunteering but the church has directives- Don't let people sit where they want. And keep people moving).
