I was in a business meeting & the speaker had a LARGE boogie hanging out of his nose. What would be the proper thing to do? Folks were looking away, while other were sniffing and/or wiping their nose, but he never got the drift.

I think the proper thing is to ignore it while the meeting is going on and pay attention to what is being discussed. Now after the meeting and it is so important to you, go to the person and say how you felt about what the had to say and then matter of faculty say to the person, you have something on your nose.

You quietly inform the person about the situation and hand him a tissue. It is like telling someone quietly that their zipper is down, or that they have lunch still in their teeth, etc. You want to help the person not ridicule him. Most people appreciate the advice and thank the person for telling them.

What's impolite is not to tell. The correct way to address this is you tell the person, in private if possible that he needs to wipe his nose.

Ignore it.....It's kind of awkward to tell someone that there's something hanging out of their nose...
