Welcoming

I just wanted to write a line to welcome those who visit my blog. However, I don't know much about these things, since I am learning as I travel along this process.

Pondering Self RESPECT

How many of us actually follow all the rules?  Never breaking one no matter what other's may think of us?  Well, I can honestly tell you, "I'm not one of those people."  I don't think that kind of person exist.  So here's what I'm pondering today:  How can you get people to RESPECT the rules a facility has laid out for them if they consider themselves to be above it and everyone else?  That rules don't apply to them.  Sometimes I think they just can't read because there is a huge sign up on the walls stating rules and regulations for a certain building.  then what if you aren't in the role to enforce the rules?  Do you still say something or leave it alone?  And if you leave it alone, how can you stop yourself from looking down your nose at those people for their unprofessional behavior?  When every other word out of their mouths is "F- this, F- that, or G.d. this or G.d. that"?  Isn't there something wrong with them?  It's like they can't complete a sentence without using one of those words throughout the sentence.  I, personally, think it's beyond uneducated and unprofessional for people to speak that way.  It's up there with ignorance and just backwards. 

The reason I ask this is because I was sitting in school today wondering how "professional" would look at some of the students walking around campus speaking "trash" like that.  I would find it hard to hire someone who openly talks like that out in public.  I know it's considered a "freedom of speech" but please, people, have some self respect.  It's insulting to be sitting down somewhere and all you can hear is someone loudly speaking those words.  If they have no respect for themselves I worry about the so called respect they would have for someone else. 

Because lets face it; this country has gone to hades in a hay basket. No one seems to care that people are talking this way and no one seems to notice that their own children are beginning to speak this vulgar language.  It's just sad that we live like this.  That our morals and values have down slided so far that it just seems to roll off our backs like water to ducks.
