People communicate in many ways. Writing a letter or a computer program, speaking to friends or fellow workers -- even smiling, shaking hands, bowing or honking an automobile horn are forms of communication. In your paragraph, describe an incident that involved unsuccessful communication. Why was the communication unsuccessful? What could have been done to make the interchange more successful?
Remember to edit your paragraph before posting it. Make sure your sentences are complete with correct punctuation, and put your name at the end.

I know in the past I have atempted to wave at someone I thought I knew. However; I have been sadly mistaken. Maybe if I had approched the person I thought I knew. I might have had better results.

I have approached someone who i thought was a friend of mine from behind and grabbed their waist and to my surprise it was a complete stranger however; it would not have been a miss understanding if i had just maybe called them by their name first.

In my experience, I smiled and spoke to a manager at a resturant. I thought she was an old friend from high school. She pretended to be that person; furthermore she continued to have a conversation with my friends and I like she knew us.

I live with my parents. On saturday morning we had a family incidant do to lack of communication. my dad is an aclcholic.He also has a few head injuries from over the years. my brother,and 17 year old daughter also lives there. there is very poor communication in this house. My dad is so mean, and treats people like they are nothin,mainly my brother. my mother talks to him like he his still a child.Because of how things are,it makes it difficult for my daughter to tell my mom how she feels. my mother is the type that wants to tell you about yourself,and what you are doing wrong, but she will get furious if you tell her,her wrongs. it's her way,or no way.i am a straight up person,and will speak my mind. everyone is scared to open their mouth.Because of this lack of communication no body never knows anything.My mother thinks that you are suppose to know what she wnts and feels. when there is communication, it is always fussing,or arguing over stupid,petty things. ther is no love in this house. it affects me,because i am a happy person who likes to communicate on a daily bases.It's hard me to communicate with my family because they have no happiness,and do not know how to talk the situations out. They tend to get physical.I wish they would learn,because things do affect other peeople.
ReplyDeleteThe only time that I can think of that I had miss communicated with someone it cost me a long friendship that I had had from elementary school.I cant even remember at this time what the fight we were having was over, because it was so long ago know. All I know is that I didn't tell her how I was feeling and she just thought, well you dont care. But the truth of the matter was,if I had told her what I was feeling we would still be friends. I did care then,and I still care about her today. So I belive when you have communication breakdown you also have relationship breakdowns too.
