Neat People Vs Sloppy People Summary

My grandmother taught me that “there is no excuse for bad manners,” and I have taken this little piece of wisdom with me throughout life. People in today's world seem to have thrown away manners and have forgotten that common decency, basic kindness, concern, respect and courtesy can not only open doors of opportunity, it literally defines their character. Ethics and morality is not just about big things – it's about the small things: the details of life. Morris calls this the “conditions under which people can be their best and do their best” (Morris p. 122). Treating people with

If you can’t keep your barracks room clean, how can others be sure that you practice personal hygiene? Cleaning is also great in its own way whereas if you live foul you could be riddled with disease and transfer that filth unto your battle buddies or even the civilians you may work with and nobody wants that. Without cleanliness I do not feel anyone could go far because it is as important as anything you are taught in school. It is one of those things people judge you on immediately and first impressions are everything. If a personal space can’t be maintained, I do not feel you can maintain a healthy relationship without cleanliness. If someone wants to come over, it would be an embarrassment to show them a filthy unkempt house, or wherever a person is to stay. There is a saying that cleanliness is next to Godliness. This old saying is said by some to have come from the bible. However, its first appearance in English even though in a different form seems to be by a person named “Francis Bacon”. In a book he wrote called “Advance of learning” 'Cleanness of body was ever deemed to proceed from a due reverence to God.’ A minimal level of cleanliness is

Being a neat person, I was offended by Britt’s essay when I first read it. After reanalyzing Britt’s piece, I found she was being over humorous to get her point across. Britt claims, “Neat people will toy with the idea of throwing the children out of the house just to cut down the clutter” (215). I have never heard of someone throwing their children out just to cut down on clutter. If I wanted to cut down clutter, I would have the children help me clean and then anything they missed finish, this would be a good lesson for the children while helping me to. Britt uses a very broad sense of humor in basically saying neat people would throw the children out just to not have to work as hard on cleaning the house. An even broader statement made by Britt is about dying relatives. “No sentimental salvaging of birthday cards or the last letter of a dying relative ever wrote. Into the trash it goes” (Britt 215). How could anyone neat, sloppy, rich, poor, any quality throw away such a valuable memory such as a past relatives

Are neat people inferior to sloppy people? This question’s answer will differ depending on the type of person you ask. According to Britt in her essay, “Neat people vs. sloppy people”, the answer is yes. She uses certain qualities, such as oral description to differentiate neat people and sloppy people, how neat people are lazier, and how neat people are wasteful. Her qualities help explain to the readers why she thinks that her answer is true.

In the writing, “Neat People vs. Sloppy People” Britt focuses on contrasting two diverse people, neat and sloppy. At first glance one would believe that her criteria is what is sloppy and what is neat, rather than how the two think. She concentrates her criteria on moral and sentimentality of the two oppositions. “They have a cavalier attitude toward possession,” Britt wrote about neat people. This explains that neat people don’t care about the sentimental value of an object. Neat people focus on neatness solely. In contrast she writes, “Sloppy people can’t bear to part with anything. They give loving attention to every detail.” This opposes neat people. Sloppy people care about each and every object individually. Sloppy and neat people are

Generally, Sloppy people say that “Neat people are bums and clods at heart”. But I disagree 100%, there is no way a neat person can be a bum; they always get their chores done before doing anything else. On the other hand, sloppy people are the true “bums and clods at heart”, here’s why they rather watch T.V on their days off rather than getting all their cleaning and getting all their chores completed before having to go back to work. A lot of people say that neat people are angry, hateful, and mean. However, neat people are actually very happy, knowing all their things are in place and clean makes them feel nice inside which creates a positive outlook on life. Suzanne Britt stats that neat people are no good to borrow from; “Neat people buy everything in expensive little portions. They get their flour and sugar in two-pound bags.” Buying flour and sugar in two-pound is a smart idea, because there is no need in getting an enormous bag that’s going to sit up in your cabinet for who knows how long. The expensive is always the better brand to purchase. Borrowing from neat people is the

The following paper is an analysis of different societal conditions that impact the individual’s manners and the civility of the interaction between members of the society. The studies that were reviewed in the following paper cover many variables and scenarios that may affect the way a person interacts with another member of society.

Over the course of the last several decades, the polarization of American society’s use of positive and negative social etiquette in all interactions has reached its greatest level in recorded history. Never before have we been more aware of the greater events taking place in the world, yet ignorant and uncaring of the smaller more personal intricacies of our daily lives. At least, this is what freelance writer Todd Schwartz would lead us to believe in his thought provoking paper “American Jerk”. The majority of statements Schwartz’ makes in this article are accurate for the majority of American society, yet he draws several flawed parallels and fails to provide the necessary information to prove his greater accusations. This results in

The act of being habitually and carefully neat and clean can make for an interesting topic in a comparison and contrast essay. Dave Barry compares the differences of how women and men clean in his compare and contrast essay, Batting Clean- Up and Striking out. In Suzanne Britt's compare and contrast essay, Neat People vs. Sloppy People she compares the differences of personalities between Sloppy people and neat people. Both essays compare cleanliness in one way or another however they both have differences regarding their use of humor, examples, and points made in their thesis.

By being shown kindness, I believe they will become jovial and want to share their excitement with even more people. This, in turn, will lead them to show kindness to someone else, creating a ripple effect. For example, complimenting someone on their clothes may cause them to feel loved and compliment someone else. This could leave a lasting impact on their minds and change the way that they view others and themselves. In addition, this could also lead them to finding and accepting Jesus Christ into their lives. While we may never know how much our kindness really meant, if a simple act such as this leads to someone finding the lord and accepting him into their heart then I believe it is worth it. After all, doesn’t God show us kindness every

The purpose of this question was to encourage the group to think about how they feel when someone is rude or ignores them opposed to how they feel when someone gives them full attention and how attitudes can be ‘contagious’.

On the other hand, there are others who were just born rude. They say anything they want to others without thinking. There facial expressions, body language, and tone of voice contribute to this. These are the people who are really negative in life. I don’t see how people can just say whatever out their mouth without even thinking of how others would take it or how it would make them feel. When people are being rude they are revealing who they are as a person in life. They are weak-minded. This shows how little their minds are and how they are working because only know how to be rude and disrespectful. People who always say, “They don’t care”, “I only care about myself”, “Nobody’s feelings matter to me”, and “It doesn’t concern me” are the people who fit in this kind of category typically because that’s their mindset and how they think. You really need to think about others and the way you speak to them

Who would you like to sit before you today, what is your pleasure? I assure you, look at

People judge each other on a daily basis. The way an individual presents themselves, speaks, and behave are all qualities other people base their perception off of. Consequently, these inferences are quite useful in determining who you would and would not enjoy being in any type of relationship with based on surface appearance. However, people may take judging people on surface appearance too far. Therefore, although making a judgement on about a person may not be a negative inference, people take their judgmental attitude to the extreme. Consequently, they have placed themselves in a negative lifestyle which negatively impacts their mood and social interactions.

Wearing nice clothes and eating fancy food means nothing if the person behaves like a child. A person wearing dirty clothes and eating out of the garbage may behave better. This is why prejudging people can often wrong. A bum with good manners and behavior would be more pleasant to be around than a rich, snob with no manners and horrible behavior. One cannot have a full outlook on an individual by just viewing their dress and eating habits. Looking at someone’s clothing or what is in their refrigerator does not depict behavior.
