Use Your Manners

Manners are like the zero in arithmetic; they may not be much in themselves, but they are capable of adding a great deal to the value of everything else.
~Dame Freya Madeleine Stark

We rush through today's society of quicker, sharper, higher.  We shorten names to nicknames, conversations to bullet points and phone calls to texts.  Start today and take the time.  The time to pick up the phone, to say please and thank you, to exchange pleasantries.  Get to know a coworker better, give a compliment to a stranger.  This is not such a large initiative, but will add great value to your interactions.  Use your manners.
