Some places it seems like the whole friggin’ populace has their nose in a mobile phone.

What the hell are they doing?

The word “work” has been replaced by “party”. The companies I ran I hired a lot of folks in their 50’s, they appreciated having a job and understood that effort was required. The #1 indicator of success is their track record(not school, grades or references). I miss Cain, he would have been a great President.

I spent most of today sitting in the waiting area of an emergency room. Yes, I received and sent a few texts to family members with any news about what was going on (and, okay, I checked FR once), but mostly I (tried to) read a hardcover book I brought.

Everyone else there was constantly and unceasingly glued to their mobile devices. With the sound on, watching video, playing games...and these were all adults. One guy took a few seconds to close/finish/end his game after his obviously painstricken lady friend's name was called to go inside. Then he got up and helped her in.

From what I hear (and don’t want to), they be talkin to dey hoes and bros, and others to about junior and how their junior is better than the other juniors. It is endless.

The last thing I did swapping out bank equipment in evenings, everyone was surgically attached to those phones.

If it’s me on the road, I’m checking, answering, or creating an email, arranging schedules for meetings including telepresence or virtual meetings, straightening out travel itineraries, authorizing fund transfers, reading technical abstracts, skimming reports, looking for a restaurant, and seeing the latest episode of Questionable Content. And sometimes using GPS.
