The effective component of wine is alcohol, and its chemical name is ethanol. When ethanol enters the human body, it will have many destructive effects. The following is my carefully arranged method of euphemistically refusing to drink for your reference, hoping to help friends in need.
Decline to drink politely.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, there are more and more places to drink, so it is difficult to refuse the invitation to drink, or even refuse to drink. For people who like drinking, every time they drink a glass of wine, their health will be threatened. For people who don't like drinking, they will feel embarrassed whenever they should refuse to drink on the wine table, so we need to know how to politely refuse to drink on the wine table.
Refusing to drink alcohol with confidence
It's best not to bow your head or smile when you refuse to drink. If you keep your head down when you refuse to drink, it will make the other person think that I forced you to drink, and you will drink in the end. In addition, if you smile, it will make the other person misunderstand that you actually want to drink, just to keep others' appetite.
If possible, it's best to look into each other's eyes when refusing to drink, to show your intention that you really can't drink. Even in any case, it's best to express clearly that you don't want to give each other a drink. Because toasting is only a superficial invitation, if you can seriously refuse the other party in the first one or two invitations, then the other party will not persuade you to drink again.
And persuade each other to drink.
If it is difficult to refuse the other party's invitation too obviously and seriously at the wine table, then you can also persuade the other party to take turns drinking. For example, the boss of the company, Minister A, often advises you to drink. You can use this method to persuade the other party: Minister, I drank it all. But you must accept my toast.
Although this will inevitably lead to two people drinking together, sometimes the other party will refuse to drink. If the other person refuses to drink again and again, they will feel sorry for their behavior, so they will not advise you to drink again.
Secretly change the subject
This method can be used not only to persuade you to drink, but also when everyone needs to drink together. When everyone raises their glasses and drinks, we can move out of a topic at this time. What happened last time by asking questions and xxx? When these questions change the subject, you can stop drinking as you slowly focus on these conversations.
One thing to note is that you shouldn't change the subject too quickly or too slowly. If you start talking before others finish drinking, there will be a side effect, that is, everyone thinks you don't want to drink, and if you start talking too late, you may have entered the next round of drinking.
This method of changing the subject is also very effective for sobering up. It is said that if we drink a lot, breathing through the mouth can reduce the alcohol intake by about 10%. In addition, because we are constantly attracted by topics and talk a lot, we won't drink a lot, so we won't get drunk.
In addition to the usual methods, you can say that you are not feeling well today, or that you have been taking medicine recently, or that you can refuse to drink after drinking one or two cups. In addition, if people around you have been drinking a lot, you can put a rag under the table and pour out the wine bit by bit.
However, all the people are happy to get together to welcome the new year. Isn't it a bit sad if everyone tries their best to give up drinking at this time? Therefore, the wisest thing to do is to enjoy yourself as much as possible, not to be forced, and at the same time, to be able to adjust yourself and not to get too drunk.
Conversation skills in socializing, drinking and speaking
First, the classification of workplace meals
1, the purpose of internal dinner is generally to communicate team feelings in a relaxed environment.
When the leader wants everyone to participate, you should not only participate, but also be happy and harmonious.
Can I not attend? If everyone needs to participate, but you are independent, what is good for yourself? To borrow a song from Mayday, "I told you not to come, and it's not high for you to come!" " "If you can't integrate, if the mass base is not good, there will be obstacles to promotion. Out of touch, the evaluation given by the leader can only be: not sociable.
On the contrary, what about doing well at the dinner table? If you order quickly and well, your words are humorous, your toast is thoughtful, you can drink without being polite, and your character is good after drinking, the leader will give you an evaluation: talented, you will attend my dinner next time.
Does the workplace need people with this talent? Yes, very much. This is also a business skill.
2. There are also internal dinners, only the red people around the leaders can attend.
Participation means that the leader treats you as one of his own. If you don't participate, you are not qualified.
3. The purpose of foreign dinner is to draw closer and reach cooperation.
If you are not a "red man" in front of the leader, or a technical backbone related to the project, or a table expert with "special skills", you will not have the opportunity to organize and participate in foreign dinners. Of course, it's not your turn to get a promotion or a raise. This is a human society. Usually we are all serious and nervous in the office, doing our own thing. Eating is nothing more than creating an atmosphere that is less serious and easier to cheer up, and wine also plays this role. How to communicate feelings with leaders outside the business without attending the dinner party? Therefore, it is really necessary for newcomers in the workplace to learn how to arrange a workplace dinner completely.
Second, the five links of arranging workplace meals
1, where to eat
For private parties with friends, "where to eat" has always been a difficult problem!
"Where to eat?"
"Whatever!"
"Where shall we eat?"
"er ... what do you think?"
You must be familiar with this conversation. If this scene happened at a workplace dinner and was asked by the boss, then you can't answer "whatever"!
What should we do?
The answer is: prepare in advance.
When you have more than a dozen restaurants in your stomach, everything becomes simple.
The question now is: There are so many hotels in a city, how can we choose the ten best alternatives?
If it were you, how would you prepare in advance?
(1) The consumption level of a meal is determined according to the importance of the customers to be received.
1 level: the highest level customers, with an average of 1000 yuan.
Grade II: Important partner, 500 yuan per capita.
Level III: General customers, per capita 150 yuan.
(2) Choose 2-4 hotels according to the consumption level and customer characteristics at all levels.
When entertaining high-level customers, we must pay attention to privacy, avoid the luxury on the surface of the hotel, keep a low profile and have taste, and it is better to have a little affection. So there are two choices: one is a high-end private club, or a corporate canteen; One is the high-grade private farmhouse cuisine, which is far away from others. How to find it? Definitely can't rely on public comments! Do you have any local friends and colleagues around you? Asking for their recommendation must be right.
Try to ask the company's predecessors, continue to go to a top hotel, and the probability of making mistakes is small. Pull your face down and ask the boss directly. After all, it is not up to you to receive this level of customers.
To entertain second-class customers, per capita consumption in 500 yuan, there are relatively more hotels to choose from. To entertain third-class customers, you can choose a chain hotel for mass consumption and book private rooms in advance. Is it difficult to do all this? It's not difficult at all. You only need to spend some time, in a few weekends, to have a clear understanding of your city. "The preparation work is ahead, and it can be impressive when needed." Remember, if you still need the boss to consider the location of the dinner, basically you don't have much room to accompany you to organize the bureau often, so you should always choose for the boss if you have goods in your stomach.
2. Guide seat
How to arrange attendance/attendance is a test of the level of people in the workplace?
Where is the number one leader sitting?
1 where is the customer sitting?
Where does the No.2 leader sit?
Where is customer number two sitting?
The general principle of seating for eating is: the front door is up, the right side is high and the left side is low, the middle seat is respected, the landscape is good and the wall is good.
Step 3: Order food.
How to order enough to eat, delicious, considerate and show class? Workplace dinners are not your favorite dishes, but dishes that leaders like or customers like. If you are new to the workplace, it is really difficult to master the trick of ordering food. But I don't think it's the most important thing to order yourself. What's the most important thing?
budget
number of people
avoid certain food
Why doesn't it matter if you order?
(1) A good restaurant can arrange a menu manager for you.
There is no special ordering manager, but also the lobby manager of the hotel. These people are experienced in arranging all kinds of meals every day.
(2) Even if you don't know the ordering rules at all, you can tell the ordering manager about the number of people at your table, your budget and the quality you want this dinner to reflect.
For example, "I'm entertaining experts from Beijing. I don't eat spicy food." I hope this dinner can not only reflect the characteristics of local dishes, but also reflect the host's willingness to spend money, fresh ingredients and two seafood dishes. " "This dinner party should consider the color, dish name and collocation. I wish the products sell well and the cooperation is smooth."
(3) You can go to the hotel half an hour in advance to communicate with the reservation manager. Tell him: the price is not a problem, and then order him here when the meal is ready; If the order is not good, it will be nothing in the future.
(4) Wait until everyone at the dinner party arrives, then ask the people present if they have any taboos and make adjustments according to everyone's actual needs. You can add vegetables when you are not full. In fact, the ordering manager in the restaurant is more experienced than you. With this sorting method, the final result won't show off, and you won't make a big mistake. You are the most worry-free.
4. Reserve some topic materials for dinner.
To tell the truth, domestic measures to enliven the atmosphere are not very effective. If you want to earn face for the leader, but you can't count on it, what is the safest thing to do? Talking about cooked vegetables and cooked wine is the safest! You can be familiar with the name and raw materials of each special dish, even the origin and function. When an important dish is served, you can introduce to the most important person on the table what it is, its characteristics, its origin and why it is ordered, so that the distinguished guests can feel that it is specially ordered for him.
For example, what kind of Chinese food does kung pao chicken belong to?
A. Shandong cuisine
B. Beijing cuisine
C. Sichuan cuisine
D. cantonese cuisine
E.qiancai
Wait for everyone to tell their answers.
At this time, you can tell the source with a smile: kung pao chicken was created by Ding Baozhen, governor of Sichuan in the Qing Dynasty, and Ding Baozhen was originally from Guizhou. He was a scholar in Xianfeng period of Qing Dynasty. When he was working in Shandong, he ordered his chef to cook dishes like "Fried Chicken with Sauce", which was very appetizing, but it was not famous at that time.
After being transferred to the governor of Sichuan, every time he met a banquet guest, he asked the chef to fry diced chicken with peanuts, dried peppers and tender chicken. The meat is tender and delicious, and it is very popular with guests. Later, because of his meritorious service in guarding the border and guarding against the enemy, he was named "Prince Shao Bao" by the court, known as "Ding", and the fried chicken diced by his chef was also called "kung pao chicken".
So the source of "kung pao chicken" is "Guizhou cuisine"; The chef of Sichuan cuisine improved, stir-fried by fire, and changed the word "Bao" to "Bao", which was "kung pao chicken"; Master Beijing changed the sweet and spicy taste into sweet and sour taste, and changed the green bamboo shoots into green onions, in order to "fry the diced chicken in Jingwei Palace". Is it difficult to reach this level? It's not difficult at all. You can go to Baidu or consult a chef. As long as you want to drop your schoolbag, there must be a way to find it! Education is more important than being able to order your own food. Basically, everyone present will think that you can eat and know the culture of eating dinner. The advantage is that the leaders will have their own important dinner in the future, and you will probably be invited to accompany them.
5. Pay the bill and send the leaders and customers away.
Pay the bill? It's simple. At the end of dinner, I just went out to check out. But do you know who should pay the bill? It is not appropriate to rush to pay the bill at the workplace dinner. No one will miss your kindness, but it will embarrass the dinner organizer and confuse the subsequent reimbursement process. So the person who pays the bill should be the person who is responsible for organizing the dinner (booking a restaurant and ordering food). Don't forget to invoice the company name! After buying the bill, I have eaten almost all the rice and drank the wine. Is the work finished?
At the end of the dinner, know the number of leaders and customers present, and arrange the leaders and customers to leave in advance. The dinner broke up, the leaders and guests were sent home, and the work was over? If you have experienced such a big dinner fight and have a clear mind, you can write a list of the work items you talked about and reached at the wine table and the commitments made by the customers and leaders attending the meeting, and send an email to the leaders on the same day. Attention, the email was sent on the same day! It is best to send an email around 12 in the afternoon.
