Jaim means to behave insincerely in the public so that you won't damage you reputation; that's why you avoid socially embarrassing remarks and stupid stunts. Somebody jaim especially when they are a public figure under the spotlight or simply an ordinary person attending a formal social occasion. The clichéd 'be yourself' just doesn't apply here; in fact, nobody can truly be themselves in all social occasions (what is 'yourself' anyway?). When somebody says to you, 'Don't jaim', that means they think you are reluctant to do dirty, dangerous, demeaning tasks--and by that they disapprove of your attitude.
