Or perhaps you have that colleague who just loves heating stinky fish in the office microwave. It’s obvious they didn’t get the memo and make life a big inconvenience for everyone around them.

In fact, sometimes it gets to the point when you just want to spell out rules for common courtesy, even to strangers. In fact, a Reddit user asked the question, “What is one ’unwritten rule’ you think everyone should know and follow?” And the replies were staggering.

17 – Before saying something, ask yourself: Do I need to say this? Do I need to say this now? Does it have to be me who says that? If you answered “yes” to all these questions, then go ahead and say it.
