New Article: The Truth About Etiquette, Part Two: Expert Answers to Burning Questions
When etiquette expert and creator and co-host of the podcast “Were You Raised by Wolves?” Nick Leighton joined the Kim Gravel Show to discuss etiquette, which he called the lubrication of society’s machinery, he also answered some questions from listeners.
Q: I go to breakfast with my family every Friday. If there’s more than me and my husband and my parents, I will let somebody else pay for it. Is it bad that I only want to pay for it when it’s four people versus, say, 10?
A: Nick said that skipping out on the larger tab is bad etiquette, and if it bothers the people picking up the slack, those people should say something. “Not at the restaurant,” Nick cautioned. “Do not embarrass her at the table in front of everybody.”
The situation calls for “a polite, yet direct conversation. ‘Hey, I noticed you skipped your turn. Would it be possible next time? I love treating everybody, but I think for fairness, it’d be nice to rotate this.’”
