Business Etiquette Faux Pas: Enter to Win!

We've all experienced business etiquette faux pas at some point. You know it, and so do the producers of shows like "30 Rock" and "The Office." Remember in "30 Rock" when Jack Donaghy prepares for his keynote speech by running off to the men's room for one of his pep talks, unaware his microphone was turned on? Thankfully, he had Liz there to save the day because some of us aren't so lucky. We've all encountered someone who has slipped up and put their foot in their mouth. Or, worse yet, perhaps we committed the faux pas!
