Fax Machines
The decision must be made as to whether to buy a stand alone fax machine or an "all-in-one" model. All-in-ones function as a printer, scanner, copier and fax. (Not all models have the fax or scanner capability). If you plan on sending and receiving lots of faxes you might consider the stand alone. For less frequent use the all-in-one can cost less.

Voice mail is reliable, reasonable in cost, accessible from anywhere and projects a more business-like image. The need for an 800 number is becoming less important because long-distance rates are much more affordable.

When leaving phone messages, clearly state your name and phone number at the beginning and the end of the message. Be polite in cell phone use!

Commonly when approaching a peer, teacher, or a stranger, the first phrase to be said is often a form of polite speech. Polite speech can be categorized by the use of phrases that show regards for others.

In my family, good manners are everything, you have to be respectful to everyone even if they are being rude to you, I grew up knowing that you have to give without expecting to receive something back, not only things or objects, also words and actions, I have always been aware that respect is your best first and last impression, your manners are what builds you as a person and that is what I have been practicing them all my life, those were the values given to me, and I will keep them.

Good manners became valuable to me since childhood because I realized that being respectful to everyone was like respecting
