Nowadays, people work in such places as companies, hospitals, and even farms. They work virtually everywhere and that is how our society has become much more complex. Further, because of overcrowdedness, these busy individuals have largely ignored the importance of being polite. Some say that it is unrealistic to expect politeness from others in a fast paced out-of-control society. They might reason that being polite is no longer a top priority. However, politeness is absolutely necessary precisely because the society has become more complex and overcrowded. Therefore, people should expect politeness from one another for the following reasons.

Firstly, being polite can prevent unnecessary conflicts. When people are busy, they end up communicating with many people. Therefore, people need to learn to be more polite with each other, since it adds flexibility and mutual respect among people who communicate with one another. For example, when a person meets a new person, it is a very rude to not be polite, so he or she should try to be as much polite as possible so that they can have a better conversation the next time they meet again. Therefore, being polite can be beneficial as it prevents unnecessary conflicts.

Secondly, politeness is a basis of a well functioning society. Everyone is taught from his or her childhood that being polite is crucial. It is very important for people who have jobs that are related with having communication, which is the majority of the jobs in the society. Politeness becomes essential when people try to express their feelings and thoughts with words and motions during communication, deciding whether he or she is satisfied or frustrated. So, the basis of a society is politeness.

As a conclusion, expecting politeness from one another should become necessary, even though the society is busy and overcrowded. Being polite can become beneficial and essential in mostly two ways; it prevents unnecessary conflicts and is a basis of a well functioning society. It makes better relationships with each one another, and is a lesson from childhood that one had learned. Therefore, people should be expecting politeness from one another.
