午餐不该做的10件事商务礼仪(2)

　　5. Don't Continuously Text5. 别无休止地发信息。

　　Staring at your screen while sharing a meal is impolite. If you get a text that can be quickly answered, go ahead and do it—one time. Otherwise, wait for a chance to excuse yourself and then reply.与别人共进午餐的时候眼睛盯着手机屏幕是很不礼貌的。如果你有一条能够快速回复的信息，那么就回复吧，但只能是一次。除此之外，你就只能等待合适时间再回复了。

　　6. Don't Burp6. 别打嗝。

　　In some circles, burping indicates that you have enjoyed your meal. While the cook may appreciate the good news, your fellow diners probably won't.在某些圈子里，打嗝会给别人传递你很享受这一顿午餐的信号。虽然主厨很欣赏这种表现，但是你的同事则未必了。

　　7. Don't Apply or Fix Makeup7. 别化妆。

　　The rules of etiquette dictate that makeup not be applied at the table especially in the case of business meals.礼仪规则规定，不能再餐桌上化妆，尤其是商务午餐的时候。

　　8. Don't Be Rude to the Waiter or Waitress8. 别对服务员不礼貌。

　　Many people consider it a big red flag when they observe someone being rude to waitstaff or other service workers. They see it as a sign of how that person will ultimately treat them. Whether this is true or not is irrelevant if it leaves them with a bad impression of you.许多人会觉得，当他们看到有人对服务员或其他服务性劳动者不礼貌是一件危险的事情。他们能够预测这个人会怎样对待自己。无论这是真的还是毫无关系的，不要对服务员不礼貌，不然就会给对方留下一个不好的印象。
