I have noticed many people have funny attitude when it comes to asking something. Others I just cannot stand watching what they doing because it is just embarrassing.

I knew this couple who have this attitude of instead of asking they always command and the net result is they don't get respect from others. I reckon by using please you can always get what you want than commanding people. Will if its me as well and somebody ask me to do something like I am there servant I would make it longer as I can to annoy theme.

What is your say about it? How would you like it to be?

Thanks for comments.....

Happy Myloting

i hate it when people asks me to do something in command.. it's as if they don't respect me and i am their slave.. that is why i say please every time i ask something from others hoping that they would do the same to me..

I had a saying that I used to teach my daughter. She used to repeat it back to me when I asked her the questions! lol. It went like this..... 'What do people with manners get?"..... EVERYHTHING. "What do people with no manners get?"..... NOTHING. She was only 2 or 3 at the time but she learned this very quickly! The art of manners is slowly disappearing in my opinion. I have no time for people that command something from me rather than ask politely. Being polite is a common courtesy.

It depends on the situation eve. I say in a please sort of manner most of the times, but use command when I have to. Some times please doen't help and many take it for weakness. You need to be tough with them.

I know that there are times that I do not say please, and I think that that is only because we get used to not doing so as people will usually follow a command from others until it bothers them so. If the first time you say "DO THIS!" instead of "PLEASE DO THIS!" someone admonition or reprimand you maybe we would get out of the habit of doing so.

Hi there eve!

When I ask someone to do something for me, a favor or whatever, I make it a point to say the magic word. Yeah, PLEASE. I cannot stand people who do not know how to say PLEASE. I would appreciate it more if people ask for a favor and would say PLEASE.
