How can I practice being respectful of my co-workers?

To practice being respectful of your co-workers, see their diversity as a unique opportunity to learn and experience the commonalities of all human beings. Examine your conversations, memos, and e-mails with your colleagues. Put each form of communication to the test of ancient Sufi wisdom: Is it true?

Is it necessary? Is it fair?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
