Stop texting/or sms boring shit !!!

Before texting in any group chats, (be it to friends, colleagues or family) you should be mindful of your topics. If anything you text/sms sounds like topics discussed in an old folks home, i.e. what are you doing? what are you eating, did you poop today ?, it's hot/cold today, DON'T text it. Better still, think of what other people are doing at that moment, you could be distracting them.

I was in the middle of a meeting with a client just now & my friend text " it's so hot today! " followed by " eating chicken rice for lunch later." A few minutes later, "what are you eating later ?". There's 5 in this particular group chat. One is a teacher, she's in the middle of a class. Another is a nurse, she's in the middle of changing a patient's dressing or something important. Another like me is in an important meeting talking to a client. All of us receiving her 3 messages!!! urgh.....

Then later the rest of us have to text each other to complain about her earlier texts! This could easily takes up the whole day !

  2. I tried sending them lots of nonsense as well, so as to discourage them from doing it ever again. End up it didnt work. It's like they took it as a sign, "Hey she loves it, I'll send her more !!!!" urgh...... It's a lost course !
