Magic Words

Okay, I must admit that I am a sucker for those magic words, please and thank you. I think if we have those in our current vocabulary we are going to get ahead very quickly. Those words are especially endearing when uttered by young children and when said to not only company but to their parents. Good manners are always in fashion.

Elbows on the table

Now hands are fine as we need them to lift our silverware when eating but elbows are not part of the equation. There is no place on the dinner table for elbows. How many times have you seen someone leaning both arms on the table? Now if that isn’t bad enough they then proceed to eat by bending over their plate and not raising their arms off the table. If you are that tired please ask for a dinner tray to be sent to your bedroom.

CALL ROOM SERVICE AND ASK FOR MABLE!

TABLE MANNERS

Watch out for those weapons that people are waving around when eating. Yes folks they are the forks, knives and spoons. Have you ever felt that you are dodging silverware when seated by someone who is engaged in animated conversation at the table? Good manners dictate that you only raise your utensils directly to your mouth and not in sweeping motions.

GREETINGS

The way we greet people is so important. The effects of our words can be so powerful. If they are negative words they remain imbedded in our memories. If one has a job where you are meeting and greeting the public please use good manners and put on a smile and say a kind word. You will create a beautiful day filled with joy for that person that you kindly greet. A wonderful sense of humor goes a long way and will bring laughter to the recipient.

ENJOY AND ABOVE ALL HAVE FUN!
