Table Manners Wait to be told where to sit. Table manners are Continental -- hold the fork in the left hand and the knife in the right while eating. Always keep your hands visible when eating. Keep your wrists resting on the edge of the table. Do not begin eating until the hostess invites you to start. Bread and shrimp are the only foods eaten by hand. Even fruit is eaten with utensils. Accept second helpings. When passing salt and pepper shakers, put them on the table within the person's reach. Do not give them directly. Men should keep their jacket on at meals unless the host removes his. Finish everything on your plate. Finns do not appreciate waste. When you have finished eating, place your knife and fork across your plate with the prongs facing down and the handles facing to the right.

As a result, they contribute little of value to their companies
