Frankie Magazine caught up with Jump the Q to query the age old art of introductions and other modern etiquette.
May Edition of Frankie Magazine proves that modern manners aren't dead! In our more relaxed society, Generation Y may be forgiven for not knowing the rules. In fact, many women are discovering that the key to advancement today is being confident in business and social environments.
After a number of questions about what behaviour towards co-workers was appropriate and how you make an introduction, funeral etiquette was considered. In the wake of Heath Ledger's death and a new era of funeral or memorial tributes, many find themselves in unfamilar territory and seeking advice on appropriate funeral conduct and etiquette.
Read Benjanin Law's article in the May edition of Frankie Magazine for a fun look at etiquette and modern manners!
Jump the Q highlights the the most prominent things to not to do when attending a funeral or memorial service. No - you shouldn't clap after a family member provides the equilogy - no matter how moving or heart-felt! Yes - you should turn off your mobile - a 'Sudden Death' ringtone may not be fitting under the circumstances. This is even more important if your the minister or priest conducting the service.
For more advice, read our Funeral Etiquette article coming soon.
Back to Frankie Magazine, it's a great read. It's message for FRANKIE women is inspiring. May 2008 edition is in Newsagents and all good hairdresses now!
