Situation–Reaction (Tea spilled on clothes at office): While having tea in the office, some tea spills on your clothes. What should you do?

Introduction / Context:Office etiquette and self-reliance are assessed here. Spills are common; the question tests promptness, personal responsibility, and minimal disruption.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Minor spill on your own clothing.
• Basic cleaning supplies or tissues are available.
• No medical harm; only a cleanliness issue.

Concept / Approach:Immediate self-cleaning prevents stains, smell, and stickiness. It signals accountability and respect for shared spaces. Delegating trivial personal cleanup or summoning home clothes is disproportionate. Hiding stains neglects hygiene and professionalism.

Step-by-Step Solution:1) Blot (do not rub) with tissue/wet wipes promptly.2) Use a little water/soap at a washbasin if needed; let it air-dry.3) If stain persists and you have a spare garment in the office, change discreetly later.

Verification / Alternative check:For strong stains (coffee/oil), a quick dab with mild soap helps; still, the first response is self-managed cleanup.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:Calling a peon for a simple personal task is avoidable; hiding stains is unhygienic; fetching clothes is excessive unless there is a meeting/photoshoot imminently.

Common Pitfalls:Rubbing vigorously (spreads the stain), delaying cleanup.

Final Answer:Wipe off the tea yourself.
