Keep your hands to yourself, Dammit!!!

Keep your hands to yourself, Dammit!!!
Are you the touchy feely type? If so, why?

I have a co-worker that is very um….polite I guess you can call it.
He speaks and I speak back. I’m a very cordial person. It costs nothing to speak to a person and give a head nod or smile.

But…..I’m not the type for all of that touching.
He not only speaks, he has to come by you to pat you on the back or something similar that serves no purpose at all.
People, please understand that all people who you encounter are different and may not like to be touched.
A simple hello will do.
And since I’m on the subject, when shaking hands, I understand that they say a firm handshake
has a variety of meanings, but you can’t judge a man/woman on whether or not he wants to have a power contest when gripping hands with the person who stands before him or her.

“Body language experts warn, however, that the firmness needs to be just right as an overzealous ‘bone crushing’ can indicate egotism, a controlling personality and a lack of trustworthiness.” –The Journal of Applied Psychology-

Just some thoughts for the mind.
