Texting Etiquette
Texting sure is a convenient tool, but remember to exercise proper etiquette while doing so. This article is a good reference for when texting is and is not appropriate. As an outside sales professional, it's good to know that face-to-face connections are still important in this rapid fire digital age!
Now let's address talking on the phone while you are in the stall of a public restroom... take my poll to the right.
You may be wondering..."where is she going with this poll?". Well, I was having lunch with my manager yesterday and we both used the restroom after the bill had been paid. It was a nice restroom where each stall is completly built out as a little "closet". We were both appalled by another woman talking on her phone while in her stall. I've seen it a lot and wondered where people draw the line with being tethered by technology. Wouldn't the person on the other end be appalled too? Can't really mask the loud flushing of multiple toilets... Anyway, looks like my readers know when to put the phone down and take a moment for themselves. Good to know!
