That's Ray Smith, who covers career and workplace issues for the journal.

Ray says one question in the quiz in particular has become the subject of rigorous debate among journal readers, whether phones are OK in meetings.

Think you've got perfect office manners?

We've left a link to take the quiz in our show notes.

The average score here on the What's News team was about 5 out of 10.

We're definitely OK with our colleagues taking phone calls in the newsroom, but we might be wary of shaking your hand if you just sneezed on it.

And so you know, fewer than 5% of readers answered eight or more questions correctly.

And that's it for What's News for this Tuesday morning.

Today's show was produced by Hattie Moyer.

Our supervising producer was Chris Zinsley, with help from Christina Rocca.

And I'm Daniel Bach for The Wall Street Journal.

We'll be back tonight with a new show.

Until then, thanks for listening.
