And...I agree with you, Neil! Pay attention at work!<br />And I don't like people looking at their cellphones ALL OF THE TIME while walking down the street, or driving in their car, or hanging out with family! Maybe because I am old, I just don't get why they must always be looking at it. Look around you - say hello to people, watch your children playing, look at the trees and the birds and the sky! They are missing so much! ...You have me ranting too!Ellen D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03776803182673252265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-9400971194839528752022-04-28T13:56:33.345+01:002022-04-28T13:56:33.345+01:00When my husband was an IT Manager, he was asked by...When my husband was an IT Manager, he was asked by management to check employees work computers for pornographic web sites as they'd had reports that this was happening. Fortunately there was a tracking device on the computers which made it easy for my husband to do this. It was found that six or seven people were looking at these sites and then sending them on to others during working hours. Suspension was immediate and they were later sacked. I doubt that this would happen to our elected MPs.

I have been in many a business meeting where people had their tablets or phones with them, and while I am sure some of them were doing stuff not related to the meeting, others were taking notes or looking things up that were relevant to the discussion.<br /><br />The sentence "They have been elected to represent their constituents not to sit in that chamber and watch porn" made me think - by watching porn at the work place, that MP is probably representing a number of his constituents quite realistically.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-10633396076962212232022-04-28T03:29:18.444+01:002022-04-28T03:29:18.444+01:00I don't think it's stupidity, I think it&#...I don't think it's stupidity, I think it's arrogance.

Cell phones are a huge part of that! They were a major factor in my retirement. A friend used to work at the corporate headquarters of Starbucks. When they had meetings, the attendees had to drop their cell phones in a basket so it was out of their hands. I think it's a good idea for many venues.
