Etiquette - November 2007

[Selected]: All categories Society & Culture Etiquette

I'm just curious what you all think. I'm 17, yet I feel the urge to wear a shirt and tie everyday. I went to high school where I had to do that, but now that I'm in college, I've continued the tradition. I mean, I would dress differently, but I don't want to, and refuse to be influenced by group dynamic pressure.

My co worker is always brushing me off in front of everyone. There has to be a crowd for his little act. I start speaking in a friendly manner to him and in front of these people he gives me a major f*** you. Like buzz off. Then at times he will come to me and act normally when no one is around. I know someone there dosen't like me and i think it's for reasons they can't measure up to me and they are also 'friends' with him. Why you think someone would start snubbing another person out of the blue and making smart as* comments to them and about them when a month ago they were a different person? He won't even say what I did, do you think he heard something about me?

When the real reason is that you simply did not like the job or people? What have other people said in this situation? Any good suggestions welcome.

Where does your right to express your opinion end. If the person you are speaking to is likelly to strongly disagree, get offended, ect. How do others see this?

Ok so a lot of us work in offices. You have sick leave and get a 'talking to'. Someone comes in with a streaming cold and nothing is said.

I witnessed a man going through trash pail and it wasn't for cans or bottles because when he retrieved the trash there was no noise, just a trash bag with stuff in it (which is illegal here if caught).

He was going through a trash pail that was not his own. I followed him, and he walked away from the home that he was at, went down half the bloock, went into the alley and disappeared.

What could a stranger possibly want with someone's trash?
He was not homeless.

Please no rude comments or mean answers.

You use this thing to ask questions, and peopel comae ona and say, "I don't know..." If you don't know, don't post!
Or they pounce on you for one typo. Or they yell at you for what your asking?

Has that happened to you?

Everyone always says that I can't do certain things because I am too arrogant. But I don't know why they think that. Is it the things I say or the things I do? What do you think?

My boyfriend's parents took me out once. When the bill came I offered to pay for my share and they said "don't be ridiculous." Next time they take me out should I assume it is again their treat? I am 30 years old.

I am atttending a Thanksgiving dinner and plan to bring a dessert or a side. Should I take the food in a disposable dish that can be thrown away after the dinner or should I buy a new dish and leave the dish as a hostess gift? If so, how do I "gift" it in a way that the hostess knows she can keep it?

I moved to Texas in July of 2003 and have not been able to find any nice women to hang out with from time to time. I am african-american and the one thing that I have noticed is that other african-american women seem to be very rude, distant and cliquish. They already have their circle of friends and don’t seem to want to meet new people. Everyone, regardless of your race, has an attitude from time to time – I know I do. But in general, I am always polite and make it a habit to speak and smile at anyone who crosses my path. Some people will smile back. Some people will speak. But out of everyone the african-american women seem to be the worst. They look right past you like you’re invisible. If they do speak back or smile they roll their eyes after doing it. I rarely go out to clubs anymore because I am married. But on occasion I will go to a bar or restaurant or something and there will be a group of african-american women.

We are planning a Christmas party at our house. My sister-in law has asked to bring her small dog. I don't think it is a good idea with all the people, presents, and food. I want the party to be about family, not centered around her dog running around the house. She is typically vocal about everything and always has something to say. I want to tell her no dog, but I also want to keep the peace. How do I tell her no in a nice way?
