Episode 338 - Origins

In this episode of Awesome Etiquette

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 proper salutations, buying gifts from the registry, leaving a job gracefully, and having a limited ceremony space for your wedding. For Awesome Etiquette Sustaining members our question is about correcting people’s assumptions. Plus your most excellent feedback, etiquette salute and postscript from Laura Claridge’s biography about the origins of the book Etiquette.
