Send to a Friend

Do you give positive reinforcement to your SO, friends, children, staff, etc. when they are simply doing what they are expected to do?
A recent question made me want to ask this question. It seemed many people seemed to think that when people are just doing what is expected, what is responsible, there is no reason to give them a pat on the back or praise. I disagree. I think people want to feel appreciated for what they do. To not feel overlooked, taken for granted, or invisible.
What do you think?
