[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a middle aged woman who has worked in an office for 20 years, I learned many years ago to aggressively stick out my right hand when someone is approaching me to make it clear I’m willing to shake hands but not hug. If other people want to hug each other that’s fine for them but I never hug anyone I work with, man or woman. As a manager I also think I could be opening myself up to personnel complaints.[/quote] Love this approach. Good for you, seriously. I wish everyone was as upfront about their boundaries. especially since these differ so much person to person. I don't want to live in op's world where no one hugs. But I also don't want to make those who are more reserved uncomfortable. Personally I'm on the more reserved side, so don't tend to initiate hugs. But I'm not traumatized by hugs either.[/quote]
