Asking for a Drink: the right way
Career services
professionals generally agree that the most embarrassing stories from the
worlds of recruiting and work revolve around alcohol. One way to avoid becoming the star of a Famous Career Adviser Story comes from the Always Correct Culture and Manners Institute's Etiquette Tip
of the Week:
When you are invited to
a cocktail party in someone's home and you are asked what you would like to
drink, your response should not be "I'd like a Bombay Sapphire martini
straight up with bleu cheese stuffed olives and have the vermouth blow the
martini a kiss."
The proper response is
"What are you serving?"
If you are hosting the
party, be able to recite a few of the beverages that you have available, along
with any specialty cocktails. Be sure to offer non-alcoholic beverages as well
for non-drinkers and designated drivers.
