Advice from Judith Martin, Nicholas Ivor Martin and Jacobina Martin.
: I have a very stressful job. I am connected to my phone almost 24/7, and I take all calls regardless of my location.
How can I politely ask others to refrain from flushing or using the hand dryer while I’m on the phone?What did you have in mind? “Please stop going about your business while I’m trying to conduct my business?” They have done this a few other times, too, claiming that they go to bed early. This couple has a tendency to come to dinner parties at our place and then rush us. They rarely hang around much to socialize. It’s like they are interested in the food, but not in the company.I ended up heating their food early and, as good hosts, my husband and I sat with this couple at the table until they finished their meal and left.
