You're
under consideration. Your manners have been noted.
The Be Respectful awards are coming
up. They're looking for a poster boy and girl, chemistry not essential but
please reserve judgement of one another before, during and after allocation.
You've heard about the ceremony, of
course. Smart-casual: no exceptions in either direction. We want a level
playing field. It's a big auditorium.
Categories include: Politeness in Unlikely Awkward Social Situations, Due Course in Outwardly Emotional Matters, Best Moral Exercise of the Golden Rule and
Silver Rule (respectively) etc.
Full silence needn't fall throughout, just maintain
a small and considerate murmur. By all means chat among yourselves but please mind what
you say.
Any slight, perceived, intended or otherwise and you'll be asked to
leave; not just the proceedings but the ceremony, the venue itself. We will not
abide such terseness.
Look at the title: Be Respectful. No ifs, no buts, no coconuts. This, of course, has recently been decreed the least tolerant fruit.
We look forward to seeing you in
action. Please look forward to hearing the nominations.
Above all, reciprocate.
