If someone is walking towards you and you’re in a group, your group should move to single file if need be to let the person by instead of staying shoulder to shoulder
If someone trusts you with their vulnerability – don’t ever weaponize it. Not in anger, not in jokes, not in “truth-telling” moments. Just… don’t. You don’t get to break what someone let you hold gently.
I’m not much of a gym guy but I’m getting older so I try to take care of myself. Don’t talk on the phone in the sauna. Even though I have headphones on I can still hear your annoying ass business call during my guided meditation. It’s the whole reason I dragged myself to the gym and you’re ruining it.
Stand on the right side of the escalator and leave the left side clear for those in a hurry. Even if signs are posted, people should still be mindful of others’ time.
