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.

Dana Arvig Matthews offers insight into some important lessons that our parents or teachers may or may not have taught us. In our busy lives, it is easy to overlook little things like saying "please" and "thank you" or offering simple courtesies to strangers we encounter. Who decides what is courteous and how are those rules enforced? What happens when we are on the receiving end of poor behavior and do we know when we are the one behaving badly? On the heels of a global pandemic, will we be asking ourselves, "Is the handshake or hug as a greeting a thing of the past?" and "Will my meetings always be virtual?" Real life examples are used that convey the importance of good behavior and the consideration of others.
