How to use "Straighten up" in context?
Almost any 10-year-old can attest to the importance of appearing nicely groomed. For adults, however, it's important to keep a clean appearance, both professionally and in social settings. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, professional appearance can affect one's employability, social interactions, and overall feeling of self-worth. A tidy home has a similar effect. When guests arrive, it's polite to greet them at the door, offer them a seat, and offer them a drink. If the home is clean, it feels more inviting and the guests feel more welcome.
