Miss Manners: My co-worker calls our potluck dishes ‘poison’ in her prayers
At a low-key, faith-based organization where teams share holy day meals and say a simple blessing, one staffer habitually refers to shared dishes as “poisons” or “toxins” during her prayers.
DEAR MISS MANNERS: I am happily employed by a very low-key, faith-based organization. Community and collaboration are part of our work culture, so leadership encourages our teams to share holy day meals together several times a year. We always pray a simple blessing before we eat.
