Taking to the skies? You might have to deal with some poor airplane etiquette. According to a recent survey by Skyscanner, the top three offensive behaviors on a plane include:
- Unwanted conversation
- Taking calls on speakerphone
- Personal grooming
And personal grooming includes anything from beard trimming to clipping your toenails in flight.
We’re not here to tell you how to live your life, but if we were, perhaps we’d say, “Stop clipping your toenails from your airplane seat. Take a look at today’s job listings instead.”
