I don’t mind when my bosses tell me to do something, but I do feel it shows some respect when they add “please” at the beginning. [/quote]
To clarify, this would only apply to written requests/commands.[/quote]
Ok, I thought about this some more, and I don’t think “please” is necessary in a relationship where mutual respect has already been established. In fact it would almost come across as pleading/whining.
