welcome to the south, where all the women are ladies and all the men are gentlemen. it is an entirely different way of life here. but don’t let the good manners fool you into the common notion that we are all a bunch of kind hearted rednecks. and don’t buy into the idea that we are also a bunch of rubes. we, for the most part, treat people the way we want to be treated. There must be something about our way of life here in the south because when outsiders come here, we can’t seem to get them to go home.
Just don’t try to change us. we like living this way.
All my life I have heard different versions of this same story “My job transferred me to Texas and I thought my life was over”.
They quickly loved living here and often quit their job when the company tried to transfer them away.
