Simple courtesy for responsible living - 7

When you are headed towards a door to exit a building and you notice someone is following closely in the same direction as you, you should hold the door for them to go through after you. Going through a door and letting off the door handle when someone is behind you is not right.  Correct?

When you are eating and someone request information from you that will cause you to talk while eating, the right thing to do is, put your palms right over your lips as you pass across the requested information. In that way, the food will not be seen in your mouth. Food in the mouth while chewing is not a good sight to behold. Correct?

When you go visit a friend and you find an inscription on the door like, "please remove shoes outside", kindly for the love of peace and regard to the owner of the house, take off your shoes. It will not cost you anything to do just that for two (2) hours or so you will be there. Regardless of the fact that you are friends with the owner of the house, it is outright disregard for you to go into that same house with your shoes on. Correct?

When you are in the midst of others watching television, it is bad manners to change channel without asking. The right thing to do is to say, "Excuse me please!" and search for whatever you are looking for and return the screen almost immediately to its original channel afterwards. For a complete switch to another channel, you may need the approval of persons watching with you. Correct?

When walking in the midst of people, it is bad manners to throw out saliva or blow out phlegm from the mouth while still walking with them. The right thing to do is excuse yourself to a convenient area and make you at ease, and return afterwards. Correct?

When your mobile phone rings while you are in the midst of people, be sure to excuse yourself and take the call briefly. Thereafter, return to the midst of the persons you were with in the first place. It is rude to take a call while talking with others. Correct?

When you are up in the morning, be kind enough to say, "Hello" to everyone you see around the house, even to visitors. It paints you as a lover of peace and that you are at peace with everyone. Moreover, it sends the message, "you are welcome here" to the visitors who may be present. Correct?
