Fall Thank You Cards

Is it more socially acceptable? It just seems like the company is so gross and so anxious all the time? Is it due to technology, namely the Internet? If manners fall by the wayside because we are all high tech now? I am not "Miss Manners" by all means, but it looks just like the courtesy is gone.

In many cases, people are totally ignorant "ways." These days, in this "informal" society, many believe it is not necessary to be polite.

Manners is the "grease" that lubricates social interactions .... it has nothing to do with being "nice" or what fork to eat. As long as humans continue to live in societies, there will be a need for "rules" of etiquette.

These days, we live another generation of people who have never been taught manners and the ways which have been scorned as an archaic sort of ball-and-chain that is obsolete and outdated.

It is surprising, however, when people who know the ways are themselves "victims" of rudeness, they shout and scream "foul" the loudest. But when asked to perform the most basic of courtesies, as a thank you note, they do not care.

Figgr Go!


Have a nice day polish.

My mother just had a similar problem. She sent a gift to his grand-son for his first baby, and did not get a thank you note ... but only 8 words in a letter, "thank you for ...." She was very unhappy about their lack of response to his generosity. Report Abuse

I am very polite and well mannered, some people say too much high, but that's the way I was raised.
I never hesitate to say thank you, please, ma'am, sir, etc. etc.
Always send cards too.

Who says it's ways. Thank you cards mean nothing to me and if I do not get it, I would not be bad at all. I would just throw it away as junk anyway. If someone says thank you, it is just as good. Society is changing, it's not a bad thing, it is fair.

No, it did not fall by the wayside! Sending cards or notes expressing gratitude is still socially acceptable way to
acknowledge a gift or a service or kindness.

It is unfortunate that so many younger people withdraw from their social responsibilities and contempt for conscious efforts of others. I noticed that in many newly married couples in particular.

Where it always seems critical is the business, especially when searching for a job. Job seekers continue to send brief letters thanking the interviewer and sometimes even send letters to their references.

"High-tech" should not have to say "no way". A mail "thank you" is just as terrible and as carefree as an invitation by email, in my book.

Somewhere along the line, the children of baby boomers failed to pass social niceeties their children. If you have not learned the ways we can not exercise them.

The older generation always send thank you cards and small children are for those parents who teach them to the. I guess that's the whole middle generation that doesn & # 0.
