I 100%, totally and unequivocally agree! Because of intereference, people are becoming SO me - minded. One simple act of kindness, politeness or straight forward good manners is good on two fronts; it makes the other person realise that not all people are jerks, and it makes YOU feel good! I work (and have done for the last 7 years) with disaffected teenagers (pc again!!!) and the amount of correctness we are supposed to apply is, quite frankly, b******s! I treat these young people AS people. I give them the respect they deserve as human beings, I have been known to hug them on occassion and I frequently (in a joking way) insult them. The results are fantastic.
Stuff political correctness, lets just go back to being nice, kind but above all, tolerant human beings.
Rant over!
