ETIQUETTE
CORNER
Q. I was in my car on the
way to work. All of the
sudden, a tiny person in a
giant Chevy Suburban
cuts me off. With a cell
phone in one hand and a
large coffee in the other,
she still managed to give
me an extremely
offensive hand gesture.
What should I do?
A. You certainly didn't
deserve that, so what
should you do? Lay on
the horn? Tailgate
menacingly? Jump into
the next lane, push the
accelerator to the floor,
pull up next to the person
and give the look?
Do nothing. A strong
person uses restraint. ,
"Restraint is the art of
feeling good later."
Thanks to the Culture and Manners
Institute at
