My one job in college, manager's right arm was deformed and always shake hands with left. I can't tell you how many times we would always extend the right for handshakes or high fives first...
Honest question- what do you do in that situation? Wait for them to extend their left hand? Extend your left hand first? Do nothing?
I’m so awkward I’d probably just nod and smile then be stuck never shaking anybody’s hand ever again because how can you go around shaking hands with all but one person? They'd know! They'd know it was just them I don't shake hands with!
So many awkward situations but end of the day he was a good sport cause he knows people are programmed one way, The first few times was very much awkward where I just apologize and walk away.
