Practical Etiquette [Thursday, August 22, 2013, 2nd period]

"So this is our last class," Josh said to the class assembled in the Danger Shop. "In celebration, I've taken you out for brunch at my favorite restaurant: Old Ebbitt Grill, the oldest pub in Washington, DC."

He sat down in one of the leather booths. "Of all the etiquette we use every day, the most important is table manners. Now I'm not talking about correctly knowing how to use a snail fork, but chewing with your mouth closed, picking up the check, not saying 'ewwwwwwwww' about what someone else ordered...all of that is the difference between a second date, a promotion, or a reputation as someone really, really gross. Because of that, I'm not going to put you against fake people. You have to sit with your classmates and not make asses of yourselves. Good luck."

Bring me the finest muffins and bagels in all the land!

Or order from the menu and don't smack your lips together as you chew.

Talk to Josh or Lex!

Both of whom have exquisite table manners, thanks for noticing.

In Lex's case, exquisite table manners included extremely large tips for the waitstaff.

Jim's table manners only sucked when he was making an effort. He ordered some muffins and sat down to chow down. He didn't chew with his mouth open or smack his lips or anything.

Such a gentleman.

When he wanted to be.
