Rules of decency

1. If something's stuck in your teeth.
   Such awkwardness can happen to anyone, but you need to get out of it with dignity. You can’t just start taking out a stuck piece of food with a toothpick right at the table. If it is not possible to remove it with the tongue, then it is best to withdraw and get rid of it without witnesses. If you notice that such a trouble happened to your interlocutor, but he does not notice, you need to hint at it. You can gesture, and if the interlocutor is not distinguished by observation, then just say. Just do it politely and don't make it public.
   
   
   
   
   
   
2. Unbuttoned fly.
   There is no need to reinvent the bicycle: if you notice that the width is unbuttoned, just leave the room and fasten. If you can't leave, then just turn around and fix it quickly. If you notice that someone else is in this awkward position, it is your duty to tell them. You can't leave a man without help. Just come and whisper it to the man.
   
   And it works for any malfunctions with clothes: someone forgot to take off the shoes or trim the tag, someone has a skirt. It should be said, but as tactfully as possible.
   
   
   
   
   
   
3. Public toilet.
   Everyone knows the basic rules (wash hands after a visit, do not climb with your feet on the toilet), but there are more subtle nuances. You can't pull the handle of a closed booth. Firstly, it is annoying, and secondly, the booth can be open, and inside there will be a visitor. This will embarrass both of you. Although an open booth is considered bad manners. It is not customary to approach too close to a busy urinal, it is better to take a place through one from it or wait. If you want to comb your hair or improve your makeup, do not occupy the mirror near the hand dryer. It will create a queue and keep people waiting.
   
   
   
   
   
   
4. Taking selfies correctly
   Selfies have become part of the modern world. Now, in this simple case, his etiquette has appeared. Always ask if you plan to take a selfie, even with a close friend. Give a person time to clean up, because it’s not only you who want to look beautiful in the photo. Selfies in the bathroom are bad form. Especially if it is a toilet in a crowded place where there are many visitors. Not only do these photos look rather dubious, but the process itself interferes with others.
   
   
   
   
   
   
5. Combating foul smell
   Many people don’t feel when they smell bad. Is there such a person in your group? Then you need to do something about it, not just whisper behind your back. Everything happens, and stupid ridicule certainly will not solve the problem. Talk to a colleague, warning in advance that the conversation may be unpleasant. Be tactful and polite.
   
   
   
   
6. Handkerchief ready.
   A runny nose can overtake anyone and anywhere, but do not inform everyone around. If you need to blow your nose, it is better to do it alone, not in a crowded place. This is indecent and certainly unpleasant for others. You can not blow your nose for food, even if you are in the circle of close people. Better go to the bathroom and clear your nose. The rules of etiquette should always be followed.
   
   
   
   
   
   
7. Cafe bill
   Now a little more about food and what it has to do with it. If you come to the cafe with friends, but were not particularly hungry and ate much less than others, you do not have to pay as much as they do. Calculate the approximate cost of your lunch and round it up. Your conscience is clear and no one is offended. However, if the difference is small, and you are in a circle of friends, it is customary to pay equally.
   
   
   
   
8. Hot food.
   If they brought you too hot food, you can't blow on a dish and the like. You just have to sit and wait for the food to cool down. There's nothing you can do about it.
