Malachai's face was expressionless, but Randy sensed his apprehension. Malachai never before had been asked upstairs to receive his pay. In the office, Randy dropped into the highbacked, leather-coverd swivel chair that had come from his father's chambers. Malachai stood, uncertain. "Sit down," Randy said. Malachai picked the least comfortable straight chair and sat down, not presuming to lean back.

     I like this paragraph because it shows respect. This kid knows to be respectful out of habbit. Even though he has known Randy for many years, he can still see that he is his boss. He can separate personal life from work. If more pepole could do this and still be respectful, this world would be a much better place to live. So come on people, step up and show a little R-E-S-P-E-C-T.
