What is the Business World Thinking?!

I took a hiatus for the summer.  Between the beach, getting into grad school and conquering NASDAQ I really didn’t have the appropriate amount of time to devote to BeerSlugger.com.  But the summer is over and I must vent…

At an early age we are taught some of the basic fundamentals of life: look both ways when you cross the street, cover your mouth when you sneeze (apparently the sleeve is better than your hand – thanks mom), etc.  Most of these simple actions people are becoming more and more too inconsiderate to continue.  But there is one lack of sense and decency that I just cannot take any longer.

Since when did people give up eating like a respectable human being?  Why is it that every business meal I attend has without question someone that chews with their mouth open?  This is probably one of the most disgusting habits that somehow eked its way American culture.  Next time you are out and people are eating look around – everyone is doing it.  There are probably not many mannerisms that spans Democrats and Republicans/fat broads and models, but lack of courtesy to your fellow diners does.

Even less appealing than the uncouth open mouth cialis pill chewer is the noise-making-chewer.  There are certain people in my life that do this.  I try to help cure them of this coarse behavior, but these kind of people don’t seem to want help.  They don’t realize they have a problem.  Maybe we need to take a page out of the ‘How I Met Your Mother‘ script and start holding interventions for deplorable public behavior.  It would be LEGENDARY

Is it just me, or does it seem like everyone is acting as though they are on a casting audition for ‘The Flamingo Kid‘?  While this is one of my favorite Matt Dillon characters, second only to “Damn, all I have are these Nepalese coins,” I really wouldn’t want to eat with the guy.

The few of you out there with class – and given this website’s audience I may have the wrong venue here – I implore you to assist me.  Others’ parents have failed them.  Society at large has failed them.  We cannot and must not fail them too!

Every person that I interview I also take out to eat.  If they chew with their mouth open, then their resume hits the shredder.  Qualified or not, blonde or not… you have to pass the first test.  It is not much, but it is a start.  The last thing that I need is to have an 8:30 res’ at Dorsia and my date have rice fall out of her mouth in front of Paul Allen…
