Remember that in France is conventional, socially, to kiss (certain) people when saying hello and goodbye. I think the OP is saying he doesn't find such informality (or social rapprochement) appropriate at work. | |

But it is not what some people like what is important, it is important that people show genuine respect for other people. So if you want to contact someone who you never met before, your behavior should reflect the situation. Your example of "no boundaries" is spot on because if you are not aware that boundaries do exist, you are not aware of and you cannot defend against violations, you simply know something is wrong, but cannot articulate it. Isn't it nice if some people wants to hug you? Not if he tries to remove your wallet. | |

You are popular, you have 4 messages! | Me: pressing button to listen first message | System playing message recorded by co-worker Me: pressing button to quit voicemail | System literary say Kiss | Then no tone/no line | |
