A cold drink should never be held longer than the time it takes to have a sip.
Do not fill your plate to overflowing. People seldom notice you going back for seconds at large parties, they will notice the mountain size heap on your plate.
Dinner and parties are a major part of the business world, knowing the basic table manners and party etiquette will assist you in making wonderful impressions on clients, employers and others. First impressions are made, for the most part, within 5 seconds of meeting someone, so remember do not speak when you have a mouth full of broiled shrimp and cocktail sauce, and do not act like you are a football player at pre-game meal and load your plate!
