The Customary Code of Polite Behaviour in an Office for a Married-Man (Bosses especially)

1. It’s ok to innocently flirt around with your co-workers (of the opposite sex - within acceptable limits so as not to be confused with sexual harassment) but come the Department’s annual family day or dinner, do proudly introduce your family (wife especially) to every Single Co-workers. This very act raised you to the level of: Man of Honour. Full of Integrity.

2. It’s ok to lavish praises & whatnots (eg. Wah! Berseri-seri muka you hari ini!) to your co-workers provided it is done in front of everyone. You have Nothing To Hide, haven’t you? Not waited till you’re both alone in the elevator or corridor or pantry...

3. It’s ok to forward religious, non-work related emails etc. to your co-workers provided you did the same for everyone in the same network: with the intention of encouraging them to remember Allah & work harder. Red alert! If the email received has anything to do with Polygamy…even A Minuscule Mention of it!

4. It’s ok to learn & practice some body language & its meanings – used properly, it helps to send across the right message. Respect your co-workers by not intruding into their self-territory. Unnecessary shaking of hands, body leaning, staring..

5. Lain2. (Help yourself here...)

Datings Confusion!
1. The List said he should 'calls you within 24 to 48 hours to set up a first date.' But now someone has said: Rakus? Gopoh? Too early to meet?
2. No need to tell her during your very first call that you owned a N*ssan Lat*o – helloooooo!!! Only a N*ssan? Lainlah mata belalang ke, haper ke…. (now that we’re talking…hehe)Who's being materialistic here?
3. Never, ever call at Normal Time People Are In Bed like 2am, 3am or 4am. Unless permission is granted otherwise. You know, maybe reminder for tahajjud ke..The part of 'wanting to talk to you every day and wants to spend all his free time with you' should come out much, much later...once the relationship has developed!

Note: The Plan backfired. Both parties amicably (he mostly) decided that they’re better off with someone else (mentioned of Who? here – but, but The Third Party has nothing to do with him anymore other than to introduce this girl!). But lets stay friends..(konon). They happily exchange pictures now...(there's hope yet!)
