10 BASIC ETIQUETTE RULES TO FOLLOW EVERY DAY // Fashion Mumblr Finishing School!

[@bjohn8943]

In the spirit “that it takes a village” , when a child holds the door for me I not only say “thank you,”, I also add “What lovely manners.” I feel like this can reinforce the lessons the parents are teaching. Also, at Halloween, when giving out candy, I say “what good manners” to the first child who says “Thank you” and I notice that every child afterward also says thank you. Of course , I am an elderly woman.

[@georginamiles7340]

Saying things such as ‘what lovely manners’ to a child often ends up more patronising than polite, even if you didn’t mean it to though.

[@theghettofeminine]

I agree, I remember my elders doing this for me. I wanted to please them with such manners, and children want attention so give it for behavior you want to see more of! Love the comment !

I think a basic etiquette form we have lost is DINING ETIQUETTE too! Basics are: No talking with your mouth full No phones at the table Being kind to the server ✨ How to hold your knife and fork How to position your drinks and pour/hold them How to sit To never EVER comment on what another person has chosen to eat negatively

[@Jaderoselima]

People forget that last one. You don’t know what other people’s relationship with food is (EDs etc.) and you can unintentionally make people feel insecure or uncomfortable 💛

Good manners never go out of fashion! I applaud you for wanting to give a refresher about good manners, or even for some an introduction.

Josie, Etiquette is so important, I teach my daughter it daily. Manners are so important. I own a book on etiquette. Well worth the investment too look back on. It teaches how to set the table, respectfulness, amongst so many other thing’s. My grandparents truly were the best teachers in these traditions and I believe in passing them down.

Josie darling 💮 When "Proper Etiquette" became a seminar in the corporate workplace in the U. S., I realized that civilization had begun to decline... Reviving or introducing this behavior is to be applauded... When I began to travel internationally, learning to say hello please & thank you in the language of the country has always been appreciated. Being more of a diverse society it's something I choose to do locally... I find it creates a moment that leaves a good feeling between people 💞

[@melissaeast2949]

Another thing - ‘thank you’ cards! I was always taught to send ‘thank you’ cards anytime someone gifts me something and I still religiously do. However, I hardly ever receive any. It’s such a small and easy act to show that you appreciate someone spending their time and money to send you a gift ✨

[@JosieIrons]

Women should do this too! Everyone should practise politeness!

My pet peeve is when I open the door and the people I open it for don’t say thank you or even look at you! Drives me crazy!! No manners.:(

[@gidget_]

I always try to hold a door open. Rain or shine, cold or hot. I will be holding a door for someone. My mom was so proud of me and I made her laugh one day. I had to use the restroom really bad. We had to find a gas station. By the time we got there I was in trouble. I quickly got to the door right before to others and I still held that door for them. It was close. Mom said I was probably the only person who would've stopped and hold a door open for others when they had to go that bad. TMI. I tinkled alittle before I made it back there. I'll never live that down. Luckly they both said thank you and gave me a smile. I said you're welcome 😊. I was 32. I'm 39 know. Lol

[@emilykemp5498]

Thank you so much for this Josie - it is SO important to afford a little respect to our fellow humans. It rubs me the wrong way when someone says etiquette is old-fashioned or unimportant - it is so important to make other people feel comfortable and respected, and having good manners shows that you are someone who puts in that effort. I'm very much looking forward to more Finishing School videos, this was so well done!

Exactly - it’s not old fashion - it’s just showing respect to those around you!

Door holding is a MUST in Canada, but in general our North American countries tend to be a lot more... informal! 😅

@@JosieIrons Hello Josie, I'm with young 100% on men holding the door for a woman. For me it's the little signs that will make it or break it.

I’m very excited for this new series! I’ve been wanting to learn about etiquettes forever 💕 I loved the consideration points... These days it’s all about how “I” am feeling and how about what’s good for “me” but it’s so important to think about what would make others happy! There’s more happiness in giving then receiving!loved this video, very positive and fitting! xx

[@thegoldpanthera]

Regarding saying "bless you" - the actual proper etiquette requires to ignore when someone sneezes. Why? Because if there is a business meeting or other professional event, the person sneezing is already feeling awkward and by saying "bless you" you are acknowledging the situation and putting even more attention to the person, who is already feeling a bit awkward. So in those situations the proper and professional way is to ignore. However, in a more informal situation, saying "bless you" can be considered a nice gesture.

[@tirsup]

I said bless you to someone who I didn't know was a Jehovah's witness and they were very insulted and asked me not to do it again. The bless you apparently has something to do with the adsumption that if you sneeze it has a devil connotation 🙄

[@joywhitley3141]

@@tirsup wow, that’s probably why I say “God bless you!” ❤️

[@aztaNoemi]

And it's not just about feeling awkward, but if there is a meeting with 15 other people, and everyone would start saying 'Bless you!' it would take the attention from the topic of the meeting. One of my university professor taught us this, and asked us kindly not to say 'Bless you!' to each other when we have a lecture going on, it would distract everyone's attention.

[@sallyannc3176]

@@tirsup that's just rubbish - it's not what it means at all. It's short for 'God bless you' and was said to people at the time of the Black Death (Plague) as as sneeze could be a sign they'd got it, and has been carried on to show concerns for someone.

[@melaniehaffmann7336]

@@aztaNoemi Absolutely right. Same with coming too late. If you can sneak in to the meeting, you do it and apologize to the professor afterwards. But if you can't sneak in and everybody is looking at you anyways, you quickly apologize for the interruption and take your seat. Nevertheless I feel like Josie is not referring to a meeting but to private situations where I feel like saying "Bless you" is the politest thing to do when you are with friends/family.

[@EmmiLa]

Loved this! 100% agree on the holding the door on a date thing, such a good indicator on whether someone has good manners or not. I think a lot of it boils down to observing and being present in the moment. Noticing the people around you, reading the room and giving people your full attention. But observing yourself too, so you can catch your reactions before blurting out the first thing that comes to your mind. It's not always easy but practice makes perfect!

[@dominiquebouwer1854]

This was a really great refresher. I like that you made the focus how your actions make others feel, rather than how these things reflect on the people who do them. 'People will forget what you say, but they'll never forget how you make them feel.'

[@amylouise3624]

Personally, I think there is a fine line between keeping tradition alive and 'etiquette'. Much of this feels out of date to me, as you can certainly be a lovely polite person without following anachronistic customs - unfortunately, the moment someone mentions 'etiquette' my mind immediately goes to classism (aren't these just global good manners?). Alas, you also cannot guarantee that someone will respond positively to such 'etiquette'; for example a male friend of mine opened the door for a female recently, who then proceeded to lay into him for being sexist. Just my thoughts.

[@JosieIrons]

Being angry at someone for opening a door?!!! Wow......

He didn't open the door for her because she's a woman, he opened it because he is a gentleman. She is in the wrong here for lambasting his common courtesy.

[@gidget_]

I was taught these things when I was just a tiny kid. Me and my brother knew how to act when we were out in public and at a restaurant. No screaming and running around. My mom always had someone come up to her and tell her how great it was to see 2 well behaved children. We have table manners that people still complement us on.

Dearest Josie, I'd love you to make a series out of this for proper manners and similar things. The only thing I think of as an important addition is to point out the differences between the proper behaviour referring to etiquette and what society expects from us. Acting "right" in terms of etiquette can lead to big misunderstandings in some situations when the bigger part of society does not know the etiquette and expects you to behave in another way. Looking forward to the upcoming vidoes you may already have planned for us. All the best from Germany and have a lovely day Melanie

People do tend to forget the basics. Especially these days when everyone is so tense and distracted.

[@JosieIrons]

[@c.l.taylor2870]

Hi all, I agree with what you all have said. I am afraid that it, speaking for the US, those etiquette lessons went by the way side when parents were practicing "new age" parenting starting in mid thur the 80s. Then late 80s through 90s when women were burning their bras (a figure of speech) plus going for traditionally men's type jobs everything from police to automotive and home improvement type chores. Then in 2000s women were joining the military. Now, that so many more of us are at home, I think Josie will get a huge interest in Mumblr Finishing School. It will be fun to watch this series.

You are such a lovely person Josie! Your advice is so good. I absolutely agree with you! Thank you for this video!

Loved this video, my mother went to a convent school, she had elocution lessons so when we were going up she taught us, so when I had a daughter I automatically taught her and now she has children I'm hoping she will teach them x

Ooh so interesting!

So good to hear you say all this out loud! As a primary teacher and mummy to two daughters, I spend my time reminding children of these values every day! Lovely to hear it from someone else whom I also respect. My daughters will be asked to watch this later. So. So important to uphold these basic values ❤️❤️❤️

Respect & kindness is something I go by everyday. Treat others the way you’d like to be treated 🌸🤍 I feel like basic manners could be overlooked especially in the US so easily due to entitlement unfortunately. Thank you for reminding everyone to be more grateful Josie! 🌤🤍

Sadly that’s so true!

THIS IS SOOO LOVELY JOISE. JUST SPLENDED. WOW! WE NEED TO PRACTICE KINDNESS IN EVERYTHING WE DO EVEN WHEN WE DON'T AGREE WITH OUR NEIGHBORS. KINDNESS IS MUST! WE MUST BE REMINDED OF THIS ALWAYS. THERE IS A KZbinR NAMED GLORIA STARR WHO HAS A CHANNEL HERE THAT HAS THE SAME CONCEPT.

I’d love to hear Wedding etiquette, travel etiquette, restaurant etiquette, hosting guests/at home etiquette

Outstanding video. I work in diplomatic protocol (formerly for Her Majesty's Govt) and now for another government and these basic principles are so important and so refreshing to experience. This subject reminds me of the quote "Manners maketh man" attributed to William Horman. Horman who was the headmaster at Eton School in the 1500s! I'd love to see more of this series.
