Etiquette are customary code of polite behaviour in society or among people. In this article, I have outlined some basic etiquette that most people do not know . 1. Don’t show up at a party empty-handed, unless you’ve been instructed to. . 2. Don’t break up with someone by text. And don’t announce a death in the family by text. . 3.If you’re forgiven after you’ve apologized, don’t touch the person again just to say you’re sorry. . 4. The golden rule when using perfume is moderation. If you can still smell your perfume in the evening, everyone else is already tired of it. . 5. If someone calls you rudely (’You there!’), you shouldn’t answer. . 6. Don’t touch someone’s belly when she’s pregnant; or even when she isn’t. . 7. Chew your food with your mouth closed . 8 Don’t talk with food in your mouth. . 9. Wash your hands after going to the restroom. . 10. If you bump into someone, say sorry. . 11. If you say, ’I invite you,’ that means you pay. . 12. Never pay a visit without calling first. . 13. A man should never carry a woman’s handbag. . 14. If you’re walking along with someone and your companion greets a person, you should also greet them. . 15.A man should always walk on a woman’s left-hand side. Military men are the only exception, because they should be ready to salute. . Others are http://www.ortintin.com/2018/07/19-etiquettes-most-people-wish-they-knew.html?m=1 3 Likes 1 Share

I knew these, except for #14. Allow me to add a few ![]() *Place a hand over your mouth when you cough, sneeze or yawn. *Remove your hat when you enter the home. * Don't wear sunglasses at night or indoors. * You don't pick food between your teeth using a finger or in front of people. Do it in the bathroom. * At night when you go to bed, the clothes you wore during the day should be folded & put away, not left scattered all over the floor. * You don't stand up while other people are eating or disturb someone else while they're eating. Basically, no interruptions during mealtimes. * A toothbrush is changed every 3 months. * Your bedding (sheets & pillow cases) should be washed once a week. * You don't leave the house without making the bed. A bed should be made daily, even if you're not going anywhere. * You don't smack your lips or lick your fingers while eating. 5 Likes |

It's a good thing life is not a straightforward thing governed by strict rules. It's not so serious. I apply the ones I remember and discard the rest. 1 Like |
