Hello!

And welcome to awesome etiquette, where we explore modern etiquette through the lens of consideration,

respect, and honesty.

On today's show, we take your questions on online photo-phopause, addressing letters to beneficiaries,

email signature etiquette, and politely deferring tender topics.

Plus, your most excellent feedback etiquette salute in a postscript segment on consideration,

respect, and honesty through the eyes of kindness, gentleness, and safety.

For awesome etiquette sustaining members, your extra question of the week is about the proper thank you gift for a very generous work trip.
