5mm tea
learning tea mentioned here only to the company for customers to visit, the table also apply to business.
first tea to be clean. the guests came in, let sit back tea. tea before must take the tea to wash clean, especially the long-unused tea set, it is inevitable stained with dust, dirt, but also to carefully wash with water again. in tea, tea scalded with boiling water until about the best teapots, tea cups . In this way, pay attention to health, but also a ticket. If it does not clean a clean tea, wild tea to the guests, it is impolite performance. people saw the teapot, tea cup stains on the stain to nausea, how would also like to drink your tea? companies are now generally disposable cup, the tea cup before you put attention to the one-time cup holder, so as not to heat hot water, so guests can Duanbei tea moment.
followed and tea in moderation. Let me talk about tea, the general should be appropriate. tea should not be too much, nor too little. tea too, its flavor too thick; tea too little, nothing out of the tea flavor. if guests prefer to drink their own initiative to introduce strong tea or weak tea habit, then the stomach by the mouth of the guests to tea well. Besides tea, whether large or a small cup, are not down too full, too full of easy to overflow the table, stool, floor wet. not careful, will burn themselves or guests of the hands and feet, so that two sides are very embarrassed. Of course, we should not fall too low. if only to cover over bottom of the cup of tea to the guests on the side, will make people think it is putting on an act, not a good faith,.
again, some tea to be successfully implemented. in accordance with the traditions of our people, as long as hands are not disabled, are served tea to the guests with both hands. But now, some young people do not understand the rules, with a only handle the guests tea and handed the matter. hands should be very careful for some tea, the cup of a cup ear, usually with one hand grasp the cup ear, boosting the bottom of the cup the other hand, the tea is served to guests. not filling the tea cup after cup ear, whole body hot, his hands not close, some comrades just-do, with fingers pinch edges of the cup before the guests get aboard. This method, although for some tea prevent scalding accidents, but it is unsightly, not enough health. Please Just let the guests mouth lick master's finger marks, good about it? Tim tea. If your boss and clients need to add a cup of tea, you go to the duty to do. You can indicate waiter Tim tea, or let the waiter leave the teapot on the table, by adding your own is better in person, it is not know what to say when the best way to cover up.
Of course, when Tim tea to the boss and the customer must first add tea, and finally give their Tim.

picking up and leaving the reception site, it has to invite you to master that, sorry, can not swiftly disappeared. and greeted the owner, should be immediately left, do not pull the owner of the gate big talk incessantly. because the other party to do a lot of the day, the scene still has a lot of guests waiting for him (her) to say hello, too much time on your master account will result in him (her ) faux pas in front of other guests. Some people attended the reception, tea party, when the half-way ready to leave when one by one asking everyone she knows to not go together.
