I'm pretty much with f8nacn. At home or at KFC I eat chicken legs with my hands but if it's a banquet or more formal setting I use my knife and fork. When I was growing up table manners were important.
I remember when I was younger I had a formal lunch meeting with a client. This was my first business lunch with a client and I was very nervous. My God this client's table manners were awful. He ordered food like he was with his family or something. I had to endure him talking with his mouth full of food, eating with his hands, and licking his fingers. I was done when he had to blow his nose. He had the nerve to ask me, "Is that all you're ordering?"
I wanted to slither under the table and disappear.
I coudn't wait for our 'lunch' to be over - LOL . I mean this was a high ranking manager at his company. When I got back to the office I told my supervisor what happened and he jokes, "Good Lord I'm glad it was you and not me!" Fortunately the deal went through but I swear there should have been some extra pay for dealing with this clients bad table manners.
