TEXT TALK
« on: February 14, 2006, 08:21:11 pm »
This will come across as petulant and maybe even condescending, to some of you, but,  something has crept into this forum, recently, which really p......s me off and I feel can be revealing about the person.

I'm referring to the pathetic use of typing in a texting style, which I make no apologies for referring to as pathetic and indicative of a mind set, which is unlikely to produce quality and attention to detail, in other areas of life, including, delivering a service.

Over the past couple of years, I've observed the attitude shown by the texting generation when working and have to say, that in my opinion, is something , some of you might do well to think about.

Incidentally, some of what I've observed, has been within my own family and has disturbed me, but it's been an insight and I feel worth bringing to your attention.

ps

Before you storm the board, really think about the wider implications of what I'm saying and realise that it's not intended to insult, but to warn of signals some people put out.

Therapist,

 I see your point, but I must admit that some of the spelling on this forum is terrible, so perhaps TEXT talk is an option for the terrible spellers or even better to have a spell check installed!!!!

I agree about the spelling, although some of this is down to por keyboard skills, as I've just displayed
