I really feel as human beings, we need more training in our basic social skills.
Conversational Distance.
Don’t you hate these people that talk to you that talk into your mouth like you’re a clown at a drive-through?
Hand shakes are the worst: there’s absolutely no guidelines for hand shakes… you know these people? It’s either too long, too weak, sometimes they give you the three-quarter handshake just the fingers, early release, late release, sometimes people will dispute your release, you let go and they’re hangin’ on.
I have actually said to people “Hey the handshake is over!”
Too many pumps
Coming in too high
Too sweaty
Coming from too far away
Sometimes a guy will give you a strong grip, late release, and pull you in for the too close conversation. To him I say “That’s three strikes you’re out.”
