 Caramel thought about his response and was at a loss, at first, looking at the lovely imp he had met at the mixer, standing up in front of the class as the teacher. Caram cleared his throat and said. "To get words out about your business, to find the best suppliers, to connect with others to find the best beings to work with." Caramel said trying to think of other reasons connections were needed to run a business. He was blanking he on what else he should say.. maybe she could tell him and he could learn something otherwise he needed to hit the books and see what Cara wanted to hear. Caram rubbed the back of his head and asked, "What else is there??" Caram's cheeks blushed a darker reddish brown color as he asked the question and was a bit embarrassed. Now what would she think of him??

 It wasn't exactly a hard question, he thought, as he could already think of answers. In fact the first student who spoke, had come to a few of the same conclusions he had and then seemed to draw a blank. The sudden darkening of the boy's cheeks alluded to blushing and Ravid offered a soft smile of encouragement before turning to face the teacher. "To open up opportunities," he added. "As well as finding support in established contacts or even customers. In the event, a problem occurs or a mistake is made, you want it to be known that your contacts and customers aren't going to desert you rather than rally around, especially if your company is the one that was responsible. You won't likely get that if you haven't built and invested in your suppliers, employees, advertisers, customers, or so forth. Anyone who has had a positive interaction, who has felt respected, is more likely to believe their experience is the normal, and that the mistake will be fixed." He stopped there, deciding against expanding upon the handful of other examples he could think of, and hoped it'd help someone else answer. There were more students than him and they needed a chance to talk as well.

Caramel thought of a couple examples and corrections, the first being putting a napkin into the front of your shirt. The correction, neatly putting the napkin on one's lap. Caram couldn't help but chuckle he knew this stuff because he had to, he had to be smart and polite to make connections so he could get funding to some day open his own bar, Caram didn't want to deal with salad forks and napkins, he wanted to eat ribs at a whole in the wall bar, but looking at Cara he stayed focused and wrote what he needed to for the class. He noted that using the salad fork for the main course was also wrong, the silver wear was lined up by when it should be used, closest to furthest away. Caram would get through this business stuff and then he would some day be flipping glasses in his own bar.

Ravid could imagine an interview or meeting taking place over a meal; he couldn't, however, actually imagine eating anything. The nerves alone would make it difficult, not to mention navigating the menu. Delicious food may be messy, or expensive, and neither would endear him to an interviewer or fellow employee or boss. It'd be poor etiquette to talk with your mouth full, he began, thinking over a typical meal, to avoid that, you would make sure to order something that wasn't as difficult to eat as say steak. As well, you'd want to make sure not to order something that could easily result in a mess or was too expensive. To prevent that, you should follow your interviewer's, manager's, or boss's lead. If they order a salad, you should likely order one as well.He wondered if that was enough on fixing it, as he was considering more preventive measures against actually making a mistake that needed corrected.
