...............Having good manners will help you get farther in life. First, if you have good manners people presume you come from a good family with morals which is sometimes important in society. This can help you get a better job, get into a more prestigious school or sometimes find the perfect spouse. Second, having good manners will help you achieve success. No one wants to work with or for someone who is disrespectful, rude, or inconsiderate. Third, good manners earn respect. For example, if a man opens a door for a woman or if someone holds the door for you, it shows that they were raised to respect others and people will respect them in return. Having good manners is also good for your soul. People live life trying to please themselves and others, and one way of accomplishing this is by having good manners. Having good manners can take you farther in life, but knowing that you treated yourself and others well is the most important in the end.

I was shocked by a door manner when I travelled Newcastle, England for business trip in 1994. Most of the people there who was ahead of me holds the door until I reach and smiles even they were far ahead. It was so impressive that I have tried to hold the door for others but it's not easy sometimes. What do you think?
Isn't it nice!! That's one thing about here that bothers me. People are always in such a hurry that they forget there are others around. Someone's smile or kind gesture can make a bad day a good day. It's as simple as that!!!
I think. between freind or co-worker also important. But how about in family? In korea people ignore manner between family sometimes.
Don't you think?
