I remember the LIRR ads for some airline company that gave you quick business tips for varies destinations. That's something that appeals to the new generation. Now it's better for people to know a little about all cultures and all customs for business purposes. You surely dont wanna piss of a potential client base do you!

Customs Check
So I was looking at this article by Bruce Nussbaum that was in a way about etiquette. He was saying how he was thrown out of a brainstorming session because he hadn't known the proper etiquette of the event. Instead of contributing to the idea and trying to make it better he was shutting the idea down by finding ways in which it wouldn't work, which in a brainstorming session is unacceptable. He also mentions how the new generation has become accustom to technological platforms in which they can interact with other individuals and that we now see that as a polite visit. It's normal, but does it really make up for not calling? Not visiting? Not really... But as time changes customs change and one must change the way they act to correspond with all situations. Now one must also keep up with what other cultures see as correct etiquette.
