Taking the HINT!!

We were sitting in our office the other day when a client guest walked in and requested for a working place. He was shown to a secluded place where he would have got his space but instead he kept insisting in sitting amongst us. He could not take the hint and he there he was sitting creating an uneasy atmosphere in the room.

There are a lot of times when this happens to all of us where we refuse to take the hint. When a host says what would you like to have for an evening drink, would you think it’s better to ask what he has to offer and then pick your choice?

The other day somebody requested for borrowing an Asterix Comic Book from a host friend. Now this guy has a policy of not letting out these possessions. So when asked he hesitatingly requested that this be rather read inside the house. But this friend kept on insisting when I had to blurt out the policy on behalf embarrassing both him and the host. We could have avoided this.

Another quick episode that occurs almost everyday. Say, we are a group of four having a conversation. Suddenly two or three would break into their own mother tongue leaving the balance dumbfounded. You try and converse once or twice in the common medium but these guys would not listen. You have no alternative other than to bear it or walk away. They just don't take the hint.

So when you keep insisting on something, would you take a quick nanosecond moment to thinks if there is a hidden hint from the opposite side and then please take it. This character demonstration would also be known to show you as a polite person. I am sure you would like to be one!!! Sphere: Related Content
