I am as polite as possible to strangers.

I desperately want people to like me, even if I will never see them again.

My standard tip in restaurants is 25%.

I assume the best in most people I meet. I am easily duped because of this.

I treat telephone support people tenderly, diplomatically, and with some humor, as if being nice will motivate them to solve my problems.

I apologize to hairdressers for being overly quiet.

When in line at a market, I will flip products around so the UPC code is visible and the counter person can scan them without doing any work.
