German etiquette group targets workplace kissing
12th August 2011
The Knigge Society says the practice of greeting colleagues and business partners with a kiss on the cheek is uncomfortable for many Germans.
Yeah, if they wanted to be French, they’d move.
The Knigge Society, named after the German term for a guide to good manners, is based in a castle 80km from Dortmund in western Germany.
It has reportedly previously ruled on the correct way to end a relationship via text message, and how to deal with a runny nose in public.
Yeah, I can see where those would be problematic.

I wonder if they have a proper etiquette way of shoving Jews into an oven…
