my rant for the day

There are times when I really hate this age of technology. We have so many tools at our disposal to give us ways to communicate: email, text messaging, cell phone, im'ing, and really, I think it's caused people to simply become more rude. Imagine you send someone an email. You know they got it. Do they respond to you? No. RUDE!!!! How about a text message. Unless their phone is broken, you know they got it. Do they respond to you? No. RUDE!!!! Can you imagine sitting face to face with someone, asking them a question, and them ignoring you like you're not even there? No one would do that because it's RUDE.

Even if I feel that the email doesn't require a response, or even if I don't want to talk to the person, I still respond. Not only is it polite, but I expect to be responded to as well.

I really believe that all this progress in technology has made many of us not only lazy, but incredibly rude, too.
