Question 4 Task 1

 1. Gross Behaviour- One of the most common bad office etiquette habits is eating smelly food at lunch time. You can eat all the tuna or egg mayonnaise sandwiches you want, but please do that at home when you can’t pollute the airspace of your co-workers.

2. Bad Language-Some workers state that “profanity” is one of the worst workplace manners.

3. Never Buying a Round- If you regularly go for happy hour after work and you keep avoiding paying for a round then you will look like the office skinflint. 

4. Not Giving Credit- We’ve all had meetings when someone suggests an idea that you had and gives you absolutely no credit.

5. Boasting About Your Salary- Why would you ever want to brag about your salary when you know someone else earns less than you? A better idea is to show your earning power by buying coffees for the team.

6. Going to Work Sick- If you constantly keep on going to work sick and not taking days off, you are exposing all your co-workers by coughing and sneezing throughout the day.

7. Talking Over People- Well, maybe it is about time you learned to like the sound of other people’s voices, and what they have to say, too. If you don’t and interrupt them by speaking over them, they will never listen to what you’re saying either.

8. Poor Email Etiquette- Even though email has been around for more than two decades, some people still don’t understand how to use it. Maybe they send emails with random subjects, cc everyone or never reply back, but good email etiquette shouldn’t be hard.

9. Loud Phone and Personal Calls- You never put your phone on silent, and even though it seems like common sense, a lot of people head into a meeting with their phones on max volume, deliberately. It’s one thing to forget once or twice about it, but if you do it constantly, then it seems like you don’t care if you interrupt or distract others.

10. Non-Stop Complaining- If every other sentence or phrase that comes out of your mouth in the workplace is a complaint or swear word, then you might need to stop this bad habit now.
