[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work at a huggy work place. Men and women hug each other, we hug certain long time clients and partners. I hate it. It makes every greeting awkward - is this someone I’m supposed to hug? Is it weird if I just stick out my hand? If I know you well but my junior colleague has only met you twice, should she hug you too? It’s great that there’s camaraderie but wish we could all just shake hands. Other than the hugging, luckily touch is pretty minimal, though it wouldn’t be out of the norm for someone of either gender to put hands on someone’s shoulders if trying to move by them in a close space or pluck a string off someone’s sleeve. [/quote] +1 I'm female and I hug now that everyone has been remote and the get-togethers are rare. It does not feel weird. I'm also an arm toucher. I'm also a total introvert and anxious. Am I doing it all wrong? eek.[/quote] Yes. I would stop this ASAP as it's not professional. [/quote]
