Episode 631 - Late Night Text

October 12, 2026 · 1 h 8 min

Show notes

On today’s show, we take your questions on how much time you really need to spend with overnight guests, whether it’s OK to text a colleague late at night, and how to handle situations where a salesperson’s commission could be affected by an online purchase. For Community Members, we have a question about last-minute cancellations that feel like a bummer before a casual party. Plus your weekly etiquette challenge, an etiquette salute, and a postscript on kids and phone etiquette.
