25 Etiquette Habits Only 5% of People Remember

What's your association with the word "etiquette"? Something old-fashioned, like gentlemen in top hats and ladies with teacups in their gloved hands? Well, this picture has nothing to do with modern etiquette habits. If you want to be perceived as a well-mannered, polite, and respected person, you might want to brush up on this topic.

The thing is, the rules have changed, but we still should follow them in order to not feel awkward. All polite people want to know and observe etiquette rules, especially when some of them aren’t that obvious. For example, if all you want to write in your email is "Thank you!", avoid sending it. You will just clog the recipient's inbox. Yeah, I never knew that, too 🙃.

SUMMARY:
- In the case of bathroom etiquette, if you see that a stall is closed, don't try to open the door. It may accidentally open, and both you and the person inside will feel extremely embarrassed.
- While applying makeup or combing your hair, use the mirror furthest from the hand dryer. Otherwise, people who only need to dry their hands will have to wait until you finish.
- It's bad manners to use a toothpick at the table. If you know for sure something is stuck between your teeth, go to the bathroom and get rid of it there.
- It's good manners to offer a seat to a pregnant woman. But let's admit, the situation can't get more embarrassing than when you confuse an overweight woman for a pregnant one.
- If you want to take a selfie with someone, you should ask for that person's permission first, even if it's your close friend. You should give them some time to prepare for the photo.
- Avoid wearing clothes with offensive logos and bad words. Some people may perceive such a T-shirt as a joke, but others might get offended.
- When you're in the boarding area at the airport, don't crowd in front of the gate. Also, when claiming your suitcase, step toward the carousel only after you've spotted your bag.
-Always inform a person that they are on speakerphone, and that there are other people in the room. If you talk to someone on speakerphone at work, find a separate room and close the door.
- While you can send work emails at any time of the day, don't send business-related texts earlier than 1 hour before the work day starts and 2 hours after it finishes.
- If you're dining out with your family or friends, it's absolutely Ok to ask the staff to wrap your leftovers, even if it's a fancy restaurant. But never ask for leftovers after a business lunch or dinner.
- I guess everyone has burned their mouths on spicy food. Instead of breathing through a wide-open mouth or spitting the food out, take a gulp of cold water or other drink. Works like magic every time!

Here’s some other etiquette rules:
When sitting at a dinner table,
1- leave your napkin on your lap. Never wipe
your month and place on table.
2- Never talk while your chewing.
3- If you’re having a steak dinner for example,
cut the meet as you eat. Never cut more

4- Turn your cell phone off and never place
it on the dinner table.
5- If your invited to dinner at a restaurant,
always see what your host orders, then
order appropriately. If host for example
orders a $20 dish, don’t order a meal
that is way more, order something around the same price and desert if
desert is either ordered by your host or
your host mentions a favorite desert.

Here's another one, when waiting in a queue at a grocery store, and another cashier opens, the person in front of you should be given the spot since they've waited longer than you.

One important polite habit in my opinion is avoid speak a language someone don’t understand next to this person. And if we speak their native language I believe is polite give it a preference.

[shamrock]

Here's one from my parents

When you're dining, especially in a restaurant, put your knife and fork together to indicate you've finished your meal and opposite each other to indicate you're still busy

Trust me by doing this you'll be making your waitstaff's job a lot easier to do which will also mean better service


This is common practice of course but I've seen that a lot of people who don't know about so for those of you who don't hope I could help

[patriciadudzik]

When 2 or more ppl are talking DO NOT INTERRUPT WITH YOUR OPINION UNLESS YOU ARE ASKED.

[vrushalidesale]

Also dont stare at someone too hard

Saying, 'you know', 'you know', 'you know' when they can't think of words to express themselves.

[lavayuki]

What about telling ladies if they have lipstick on their teeth? I usually silently motion to the teeth or whisper it to them

The proper way to hold a white wine glass is by the stem, so that the wine can keep its chill.

[vrushalidesale]

Every cell phone has a calculator. There should be no reason why the bill can't be split correctly.

[jomuffins]

Well-Mannered People:does it correctly


*ME*:*uses a teacup for drinking coffee*

[praveensarat]

I can eat even a piece of stone with lemon squeezed on it :) One thing i liked is, even before seeing this video, I used to shield a piece of lemon with other hand before squeezing it in on a dish in a restaurant .Its just commonsense. Great tips bro. keep posting.
