10 No-nos

Starting this rundown of overdue blog posts is this list I found while blog-hopping. This is a list of that turn one off about other people. Reading the list made me thought how many times have I been guilty of doing some of these. I'd say you are a hypocrite if you would cross out all the items here if this were a self checklist. Admit it, everyone of us had been a suck-up once in a while:

1. Dropping names of famous people they know.

2. Body odor. I’m not talking about bad odors that was caused by your diet. I’m talking about scents that just go straight to your nose because the person you’re talking to would rather not waste time on something as irrelevant as taking a bath.

3. Bad breath. It’s fine if we’re together and we just enjoyed a garlic pizza together. But to go to work or meet a client with your last alcoholic drink still noticeable on your breath is unacceptable.

4. Unless you’re a farmer or gardener, I don’t think you should go out having dirty fingernails.

5. Barely there tops and skirts. There’s a thin line between looking sexy and looking like a slut.

6. When people are rude to waiters or other customer service oriented staff.

7. Related to number one, being brand conscious. It’s one thing to be able to afford them but another thing to buy expensive things when you can’t even make ends meet for the sake of appearances.

8. Snobs

9. Know-it-all guys when clearly they don’t have a clue. It might be forgivable if you really know what you’re talking about.

10. Social climbers. Befriending someone just because they’re rich.

I am near doomsday. Spending the last hour just staring at your screen though you have tons of task is one hell of a good sign. This post is a good start though. Expect more in the next hour.
