SIXTEEN UNWRITTEN RULES.!
1. Don’t call someone more than twice continuously. If they don’t pick up your calls, that means they have something more important to attend to, or they are not near their phones at that time.
2.When your colleague/ classmate/ teammate, neighbour, gets shouted at, please don’t stare at them. It makes the moment twice awkward.
3.When someone drops something on the floor by mistake, drops food from the plate or doesn’t know how to use a knife/fork don’t stare at them. The same goes to people sneezing, coughing or even letting out an uncontrollable fart. They are all involuntary actions.
4. Always skip using the washroom beside the occupied one. It makes it uneasy for the person in the occupied washroom as well as yourself, if you occupy the one right next to theirs.
5. Return money that you have borrowed even before the other person remembers that he lent it to you, be it 100/-, 100,000/- or 1,, 000,000/-. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with borrowed umbrellas, pens, lunch boxes or any other item you borrow.
6.Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone is treating you to lunch/dinner. If
possible, ask them to order their choice of food for you.
7.Don’t ask awkward questions like, ‘Oh, so you aren’t married yet?’ Or ‘Don’t you have kids?’ or ‘Why didn’t you buy a house?’ it can embarrass or
devastate the person. Have some common sense!
8.When someone makes a wrong investment and loses their money, don’t add fuel to the flames by
saying ‘I knew this would happen. You should have listened to me’. Don’t make failure seem worse for anyone.
9.Always open the door for the person coming behind you. It doesn’t matter if it is a male or a female. You don’t grow small by treating someone well in public or by being kind.
10.Wear ear phones when travelling on a subway, car or bus. Don’t make others taste your choice of good/bad music. Don't put them through the pain of listening to music under compulsion, no matt
Self reliance but God is above all
