    No there’s nothing mandatory and i said i have never seen anyone get scolded for not doing it. It’s just common sense , it;'s being thought in communication courses etc just like when picking up phone you first say greetings, say company name, then your name. Because caller usually knows company and greetings but is having hard time catching your name if it;s first thing to they get “shot” at them upon you answering the phone call.

    Last thing is typo from smartphone, holding door and order of recipient in email doesn’t belong to the same sentence. .

      It’s bewildering to me how you don’t see the contradiction here. If you say it’s common sense then it’s so ingrained into your work culture that it might not be mandatory but still very well part of the unwritten laws governing how you work together. Not being scolded for not following it does not mean that people will not talk about it behind your back. These rules are the foundation of mobbing and bullying. None of that is an official rule but it can very well be considered mandatory if you say it’s common sense to follow it.

      I was never taught any of this and I also don’t do that. Company name first? Never did that and never had anybody mention to me that I should change my behaviour in that regard.

      Everything you say sounds weird as fuck to me. Would you mind telling me what country you’re from?
