This book is the short slap to the back of the head most people need nowadays. In a world that''s more likely to flip the bird than hold the door, it''s their reminder of proper behavior. You''ll receive a (re-)schooling in manners with lessons split up by situation, then tackled by topic. Each note corrects conduct that''s become all too common, like . . .Bad Behavior: Popping a piece of gum into your mouth midconversation, and stressing your point by snapping it.Courteous Fix: If you''re going to have a piece of gum while talking to someone, be sure to offer your companion a piece--and keep your mouth closed as you chew. You want your breath to be fresh. Not your attitude.It''s a reminder that it wasn''t always out of place to be polite.
