Just a word on etiquette in the uk - as Sehrysh points out - never ever ever refer to someone like this (doll) - it will land you (most probably) in an industrial tribunal! I know thats the case in the EU, most probably similar in the USA and Aus etc, though Im not positive.

Alos the thank you and please issue in the UK - its a normal part of working practice, it is good manners - if you dont use them at the correct times, even in a colloquial way then you are in the minority, it could be seen as rude.

But balance yourself - dont overdo it. being too effusive in praise or gratitude is also considered unnecessary and you could embarrass the other person - Sensibilities come into it.

As a matter of interest the UK’s BIS recently published a workplace study on manners - guess who came out in the bottom 5 of all nationalities in the manners survey - you guessed it : the pakistanis ( but then so did the bangladeshis). Indians were pretty high though which was nice! If i find it online again I will post it up for you … if Im allowed to!

Thanks for the pointers. I wish I could hack into her computer and delete that email. :hinna:
