Wait for hot items to cool. Do not blow on your soup to cool it, because you might splatter on someone else. Do not take the ice from your beverage and use it to cool hot soup or a hot beverage. Never use your spoon to scoop ice out of your beverage and do not even think about using your fingers.
If you are in an interview or an important business meeting – – waiting for hot soup or a hot beverage to cool demonstrates patience.
