An etiquette question regarding tradespeople working in people's homes has sparked a surprising debate among Australians.
A recent Reddit post shared by a British expat living in Brisbane explained that in the UK it was commonplace etiquette for a visiting tradesperson to be given a drink or snack.
那个人补充说,当提供食物或饮料时,澳大利亚的一些传奇甚至像我一样疯狂。我是怪异的吗?海报问。
评论部分充斥着来自家庭居民和传统的答复。
澳大利亚房主对该帖子做出回应,并同意,虽然bell ocked bell of the Gesture bell,但他们仍然是好
'我总是问他们是否想要茶/咖啡/水或任何东西。大约十分之一的人接受。但是我总是会提供的。'阅读最佳答复。
'我是一样的,我总是提供的,只有很少的接受。回复阅读:“水管工/企业主在这里。当我提供茶/咖啡和饼干时,我当然很感激款待,但是我经常不接受。老实说,我真的不在乎喝酒时通常会期望的聊天(除非您是长期的客户)。
''>'这一天需要不必要的时间,而我对我的工作变得不合时宜。另外,我也有午餐和饮料。他们只是在那里去做工作并离开。回复。
但是,评论部分中的某些传统确实同意,像一罐软饮料,冷瓶水甚至仿制啤酒一样,更有可能被接受。
The recent Reddit thread saw tradies confirm that they appreciated the generous gesture of a closed bottle of water, can of soft drink or even a knock-off beer at the end of a job.
Interestingly, the comments section spun-off into another more紧迫的礼节问题,在人们的家中工作时经常遇到。也就是说,房主是否提供厕所的商人用途。
'告诉一个商标,可以使用厕所,甚至指出哪个可以使用哪个可以很好地赞赏。手势比提供饮料的手势,因为否则这导致他们浪费时间离开工作地点寻找NEArby公共厕所。
