Default resume preparing

What is at issue (which you would see if you'd read the rest of the thread)
is not whether an introduction is performed but who is introduced to whom
first.

This would perhaps be reversed if you were introducing a parent (or
especially a grandparent or other elderly person) to your boss.


That would depend on the context. In a social setting, perhaps so. In a
business setting, no. In a "mixed use" setting, such as the office
holiday party, then the principle "the roof constitutes an introduction"
holds.
