time, she 36 to her neighbor about the poor service she received at the local drugstore. She was hoping her new acquaintance would repeat her 37 to the store’s owner.

Where love focuses on giving to others, respect shows a 52 to receive from them. If you have had the opportunity to work in many environments, and you have 53 both types of people—those who have and those who have not shown you respect—you 54 how motivational respect can be.
