Summary

On today’s show Lizzie and Dan take your questions on late guest requests for a wedding, asking for reassurance on a generous offer, on not being the office know-it-all, a question about who to address a sympathy card to, and an urban workplace myth that is very much alive. For Awesome Etiquette Sustaining members we talk about whether or not to purchase flowers for all when a vendor comes to the table. Plus your most excellent feedback, etiquette salute and a postscript segment on “pinkies out” from the rituals of dinner by Margaret Visser.
