Maybe it's just that you don't know how to use social courtesy.

Oh, that's old-fashioned.

Watch how Lizzie Post and Dampost Senate.

Act as host and hostess.

They know that courtesy means showing respect, thinking of the other person, real friendliness.

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 not wanting others to feel rushed at the dinner

table, wearing flip-flops at the office, feeding out-of-town guests

at the rehearsal dinner, and where to dry your hands at someone else's house.

For awesome etiquette community members, our question of the week is a follow-up to a question

about tipping with gift cards.

Plus, your most excellent feedback, etiquette salute, and a postscript on being a great guest of honor.

All that's coming up.

Awesome etiquette comes to you from the studios of our home offices in Vermont and is proud to be produced by the Emily Post Institute.

I'm Dan Post Sending.

And I'm Lizzie Post.

Hey, guys. How's it going, Lizzie Post?

It's going. I feel like there's a lot. On this crisp autumn morning. It's going. It's lovely.
