How do you tell someone politely. That looks unprofessional.
If you're cold, dress warmer.

The polite thing is to say Good morning, and Thank you for your help, and finally, Have a safe day!

And let me wish you a pleasant day too. I hope your middle-school reopens soon.

You're an adult with a job, supposedly. Why do you have a crossing guard?

Lemme guess...passed over twice for promotion to SSgt and they kicked you out?

Now all you can do is “correct “ all those nasty civilians?

Someone tells me to take my hands out of my pockets, they come out and go right down the front of my crotch.

Theres already too many scolds and lecturers about.

When I was driving buy I stopped for lunch and noticed her there and paid for
her pizza and said to her politely. Do you want to meAt for a drink? It's the principle.
