Times are changing. A lot of the rules in our society, that were once very rigid, are now something that we hardly pay heed to. But while some rules and regulations, on what might be considered as good behavior, are obsolete now; there still exists a bunch of unspoken ones that one needs to adhere to.
These are rules that have a lot to do with commitment, gratitude, privacy and general courtesy. |
When you borrow someone’s car- return it with a full tank of gas, or at least fill it up more than what you got it as a way to saying thank you |
Don't smoke when someone around you in visibly uncomfortable |
If someone buys you a coffee - Or any other drink, snack, food etc, you should return the favor within a week or so, if you don’t get around to it by that time, get them a small treat and leave them it by the desk |
If you ask your friends to help you with something - Mooving, yard work or whatever, you feed them as payment |
When you borrow money from a friend - Pay them back as soon as possible, it doesn’t matter the amount, don’t assume they don’t need it, never make them ask you for it |
Don’t let your arguments escalate in public - if you feel you can’t control your language or volume then go somewhere else where to continue where other people won’t feel uncomfortable |
When someone else cooks for you - offer to help with the dishes |
Turn the volume down - If you are sharing a video with a friend or playing a game in public, turn the volume down or use headphones |
don’t use speaker phone to have a 2 person call - unless your hands are tied and you are unable to hold the phone, this is really rude |
Always leave the last piece - of something to the person who bought it, unless they really insist they won’t eat it
|
When using someone else's phone or compute, don't go through their stuff without permission
|
In case you miss a call, drop a message as soon as possible if you're unable to call
|
Make sure that you don't forget to return that book you borrowed
