This is completely ridiculous and could end up hurting more than it helps. Netflix has reportedly banned workers from looking at each other for more than five seconds as part of its new anti-harassment rules.
The new policy also bans the company’s film crews from asking their colleagues for their phone numbers, according to an article in the Sun.
“Senior staff went to a harassment meeting to learn what is and isn’t appropriate,” an on-set runner told the Sun. “Looking at anyone longer than five seconds is considered creepy.”

Yes, you’ll be O.K.
But barely!
This whole country has gone nuts. The election in 2008 proved that beyond a shadow of a doubt.

I will have to recalculate using Pi, Oprah’s daily caloric intake and the number of Hillary’s excuses.
This may require a supercomputer.

Don’t forget, pi is not square. Cornbread are square.
Pi are round.

Is there a five-second rule if I drop to the ground while staring, but quickly pick myself up again?

Those who violate this policy 180 times will just be looking for their fifteen minutes of fame.

May be considered impolite but I will rarely maintain eye contact for more than a second. Unless it’s Melania!
