Thanks for the office (space)

If you've been extended a courtesy to work in someone's office (whether because of a national tragedy or you're just traveling), be sure to send a nice Thank You gift! You'll be sure to be welcome back and it's good business procedure.

When calling the deaf...

From: "FAQs and General TTY Etiquette Tips for New TTY Users" Source: RIT Libraries. You should let the phone ring 10 or more times to allow the Deaf or Hard of Hearing person enough time to see the flashing light on their TTY phone and respond to it.

Breathing through the Jostle

In the rush to get things done in our modern lives, if you jostle or are jostled in the hectic commute or travels, remember that the person you bump into is trying just as hard as you to get through the day too. Take a minute, breathe and smile. If you do so, you may find you've made a friend and not a foe.

No Double-dipping!

Please! No double-dipping! If you're snacking on a veggie at a cocktail party, don't plunk it back into the dip after you've taken a bite.
