Your body can be rude too
Conveying your dislike and annoyance to
someone need not always end up in verbal abuse. There are several other ways in
which your body sends out your message.
- Tilting the head back or closing eyes while talking
- Steepling fingers or peering over the top of the glasses
- Banging the table at a joke as wringing hands
- Chewing pens or cleaning ears or nails before others
- Sitting or learning over someone's desk
- Greeting someone by remaining slumped in your chair
- Ignoring people when they greet you.
- Working or looking at the watch while someone is taking to you.
- Whispering, puffing or grimacing before someone
- Getting up from the meal before others finish or packing up
papers before the meeting is over.
- Shaking hands hardly or limply
