A curious fact: in the English language in common if someone sneezed, they say«God bless you»( "God be with you").

This neutral desire means that if the act of sneezing over illness, dear, kind God should keep an eye on you. Well-established tradition in the Russian language to say "Bless you!" As if a priori assume that the sneezer sick. However, with increasing number of people suffering from, for example, from seasonal allergies, sneezing, it ceases to be a sign of illness. Such a wish can bring to the white-hot allergies. Therefore, all the updated decals in different countries offer just keep quiet and pretend that you do not notice anything, that if in the same room with you someone sneezed.

More and more social articles in Europe urged not to give way to older people, or at least, do not do it deliberately. The reason for the reluctance of Europeans to make an offer to sit on a specially vacated the place lies in the fact that no one wants, so that he was considered a weak man. There was a term such as ageism (From the English. age - 'age'), which is formed by eloquent analogy with the word "fascism". When you are offered a seat, a person who does not feel feeble, can deeply offended. In some European countries the elderly prefer to live an active lifestyle, exercise, move around on bicycles. Giving way to Europe only to those people who apparently "It looks bad"It appears sick or really weak. If you think that the cabin is elderly people who might like to sit down, pretend that you already have to go Get up and move closer to the door

In the 20th century, not only in the post-Soviet space, but also on this side of the Atlantic and the inoculated topic of succession of generations and obligatory care for all representatives of the relatives. But the further back we went into the twentieth century, and then in the twenty-first, the more distinct became the nucleus of society. Now every family - a microcosm of several people. Because people today have a lot of hobbies, play sports and live an active life, the habit of inviting all the holidays, it will be possible to find out from everyday life because of a special flair Tabarna in the calendar, all the living relatives of such events. It is not shameful to simply send a text greeting all the relatives during the holidays. Because the No one owes nothing to nobody - sounds like this formula for happiness today.

Among the teachers of major universities There is a joke: "Well, you have to remember the first course, or you yet that name is" I'm sorry "? The surprising fact, but the vast majority of people consider shameful to ask again the name already familiar to the person if it is out of my head. But everyone, without exception, I would like to be called is not stupid, "Excuse me ...", and his own name. It is therefore absolutely normal is a figure of speech: "Excuse me, remind your name and patronymic, please!" You can add something comic-informal: "Oh, just a head full of holes!"

5. No one, and no one should be small talk

Probably each of us once in my life seen such a situation: a man somewhere in the facility busy with his paper-intellectual work, and then in the room there is a new man, for example, one relatively senior, who expects another colleague to conversations. Intelligent people immediately quit my job and - to the detriment of their own time - begin to talk about the weather, because "Otherwise the same would be embarrassed". In fact, absolutely no shame just to say hello to the newcomers (possibly standing up and shaking hands) and quietly go back to his work. A man comes to the workplace in order to work. Just idle conversation with anyone else violate the job description of every employee. The same applies to informal businesses: everyone has the right to remain silent as you wish.
