This will be my first trip to the USA. I'm worded about correct business behavior and manners. My boss invited me to his home for dinner. Do you have any advice?‎ Reply Sue,‎ Miami Posted:‎ ‎3 days ago Re: First trip to the ‎USA It's a good idea to bring a small gift or something from your country. Don't be surprised if your boss opens the gift right away. In the USA, people often open a gift when they receive it. In Korea, that is not polite, but it's appropriate in the USA.‎ Reply Sam,‎ Los Angeles Posted:‎ ‎2 days ago Re: First trip to the ‎USA Americans use their hands to eat some kinds of food, such as pizza and fried chicken.

In the United States, you usually don't take your shoes off. Once I was travelling in Japan and entered a house with my shoes on by mistake. Oops!‎ Reply Lee,‎ Korea Posted:‎ ‎2 hours ago Re: First trip to the ‎USA Many Americans are very informal at home.

Besides, unlike in Korea, everyone took part in the dinner table conversation, even the man's wife and children.‎ Reply Andrew,‎ Washington Posted:‎ ‎2 hours ago Re: First trip to the ‎USA I agree with Lee. I was surprised that American men often cook and that both the husband and wife come to dinner table and talk. You probably won't speak about business during dinner, so my advice is to know some good topics of conversation. For example, you can talk about travel, food, music, or sports. Of course, it's good to ask about your boss's family. But it's not polite to question about age, salary, religion, or politics.‎ ‎69. Who will go to the USA?‎ ‎ A) Sue B) Kathryn C) Sam D) Jun ‎70.
