Are we should talk in different manner to different people?

[Speak_listen]

bro and sis,

when we talking to someone, are we should talk in different manner to different people?

example:

- when you talk to stranger/ same/ higher level then you, you talk polite, maybe to show that you have high education, good family background, etc.

- when you talk to your employee/ lower level then you, you talk like you own this world, etc...

 

do you often see/ meet that kind of people?

I only talk in diff manner between close friends and the rest cos you don't know how the rest will perceive you.

eg. you can talk to your camp mates with all the color words whereas you don't do this with those you just got to know or not close.

[Ah_Zai]

Of course. Must change tone and attitude depends who you talk to.

 

But nowadays I see those new hires aka strawberry generation sibei rude and sometimes kuai lan when they speak to their bosses.... too much western influence liao..

[WTF]

if we talk to all in the same manner and tones.......then we'll be like a talking machine, aren't we???

I think this is quite common right?

 

For example when you speak to a customer and when you speak to your colleagues, I am sure there will be some differences.
