Draft 2
[description]@@NAME@@ has instituted mandatory etiquette lessons for all citizens, but it seems many @@DEMONYMPLURAL@@ are failing the stringent tests offered at the end of the 12-week course. Failure in the etiquette lessons also has downstream consequences for people's employability, especially in the service sector. Frustrated citizens have now come to your door to politely beseech you for swift action.

1. [option]"This is f***ing ridiculous, I am telling you!" screams @@RANDOMNAME@@, a server from Dum-Dum Dumplings, taking off @@HIS@@ apron and slamming it on your desk. "This is the third time I am taking this bloody etiquette course and yesterday I failed again just because I put the frickin' forks on the right side - which, by the way, is the RIGHT side, alright? I have more important matters to attend to, like whether the numbskull on Table 2 could figure out how to uncork the wine or should I also f***ing do that for His Lordship. For Violet's sake, make these courses optional and let us go back to our work!"

2. [option]"Ahem, let us not be hasty here," interjects @@RANDOMNAME@@, a receptionist from @@ANIMAL@@ Star Hotel, coughing into @@HIS@@ hands and wiping them on @@HIS@@ jacket. "I think we solely fail in this course because we need to attend the lessons after work in the evening or on weekends, and then we are too tired to concentrate or learn anything. If we were guaranteed a paid leave for the duration of the course, I am sure we would be more incentivized to learn."

3. [option]"Frankly, I think your teaching methods are the problem here, my dear," chimes in Hildegard Rottermeier, the headmistress of the Institut Château Gruyere finishing school in Helvetland, adjusting her wire-framed glasses with a subtle and graceful gesture. "For over a century, our institute has educated a large number of young ladies destined to become princesses, duchesses, queens, or the proprietors of high-end businesses that serve a distinguished clientele. We have meticulously equipped them with the most impeccable manners over the years, preparing them for entry into high society. With your permission and funding, we could make our exquisite mentors and their teaching methods available to you, reforming and restructuring your etiquette education. I dare say we will start seeing some magnificent results in no time."
