Sometimes U.K

Can they be taught to an adult or are they learnt in childhood?

Am referring to work colleagues who have zero manners to everyone including the clients.

Most people could change their poor people skills, if they wanted/had to that is. But if they are unwilling or don't believe that it is necessary it is extremely unlikely to happen.

Like anything...people have to want to change for it to genuinely happen.

Only if they realise that they have no manners though?

If their attitude is ignored by others, how can they change if they don’t realise they need to?

Clearly they won't

I would tell them....but that's just me.

Manners and politeness cost nothing but can make the world a sunnier place

Learning and growing as individual carries on throughout life, the majority of people will have the capacity to change.

At work this needs to be addressed by the line manager, HR or on the front line directly.

I would definitely pull someone up for this.

You can only change the ways of people if first they want to change their ways

You’re absolutely right Taff. We’ve talked about this and we have the same views on it

we do, a cheery hello and please and thank you can always set a jolly mood for the day .

I hear you loud and clear. Manners and social etiquette are quite rare these days. When you do see it, it's a breath of fresh air.

I'm afraid it's something that is learnt early, not a quality that is usually adopted in later life. Hence the proliferation of ignorant people.

They happily start the day with a cheery hello but sadly that is their absolute limit.

I can also say from retail experience that it is often the older generation that do forget their manners, or seem to see it as a weakness to show any nowadays.

Infact I was almost floored with surprise when a older lady actually told her husband off for saying thank you as they left the shop.

If it's at work, why is no-one telling them?

As others have said, people have to want to change.

Many people on here say they only give respect after someone has shown it to them first. Well if that's their attitude they will always get that mirrored back at them.

You are not born with manners you learn them however people may have learnt them some still don't use them because they think they are above having to use them.

Good manners and a respectful attitude are developed in childhood and the adolescent years. It's a development stage you are either fortunate enough to forge or not.

Those who do not posses these qualities as adults can be taught to mimic them, but I'd rather deal with genuine ignorance than false civility, as you get to see what your dealing with sooner...but it must be a real downer working with a shower of unaware colleagues
