[quote=Anonymous]What about tapping a person’s shoulder or upper arm to get their attention in a crowded room/group where it’s noisy? FTR, I’m a woman who did that to a male colleague and was surprised when he seemed startled/upset by it. It was at a conference event in a ballroom with 1k+ people hustling past each other looking for their assigned tables, etc. It was loud. It was dimly lit as well. I needed to get his attention to ask him a work-related question for someone working the event and I figured tapping his shoulder/arm would be less abrupt/more polite. Given his response, I made a mental note to never touch anyone at work again. And that’s weird imho. People I interact with professionally who aren’t employed by my company are more engaging and touch people without issue (handshakes, hugs, pat on the back, joking nudge, etc.). [/quote]
