Flub to Flub: Perfecting a Professional Handshake

I thought I had it down. I thought my handshake was perfected. Firm, not flimsy. Strong, but not bone breaking. Gentle, but not weak. As I gave Mr. Miller a goodbye-it was nice to meet you-handshake, I was introduced to the flub. You know – that area of skin that stretches between the crook of your thumb and pointer finger...that’s the flub. “Flub to flub,” he said. “Always make sure your flub meets their flub.” And that was it. Plain and simple. So friends, the next time you go to shake a hand, remember the flub.
