  • It sounds like the post fits fairly well to your workplace, but at any rate I think the important part is that “respect” means different for different people and the core idea that some think there’s a difference incoming vs outgoing is problematic.

    The whole core of “treat others as you wish to be treated” is this. It’s not about actions, it’s about intentions. It should be “treat others with the respect and consideration you wish for them to give to you”

    Introspection is key. Are you actually nice or do you just think you are?

    Would an average person describe you as nice? I’m not saying you should care what others think, I’m saying you can use what others say as a starting point, especially if it’s someone whose opinion you respect.

    I don’t care if racists or sexists call me intolerant, but you can be sure that if my best friend who is a very sweet person said I’m being hateful then I would take that to heart and reevaluate my biases and preconceptions.
