I have it...but I don't use it a whole lot.

Mainly because of the stupidity I see on there every day.

I will copy and paste the text from the first 3 tweets from my feed right now

"That ball hit the ground"

(can't copy and paste the next one)

"why did the baker stop making donuts. He was tired of the hole thing"

And that's the top of my twitter feed....

No matter how many things you unfollow, the stupid is ALWAYS there.

You're only slightly boring.

I was not *necessarily* thinking of anyone specific on GT when I wrote that.

If I posted what I was thinking at most moments?
I'd be banned for constant profanity.

Of course not.

I am just a face to face person so stuff like Skype is more my speed but I mainly use that to talk to family and friends.Texting and Twitter stuff like that is not of much use to me personally. I can see how in certain types of business it is useful marketing like a store or restaurant. In my industry no one that needs a walk in cooler installed or the cooling unit for their juice factory fixed they do not read Twitter.

We could Twitter "special this week we wont charge you for the fuel cost of driving ourselves our equipment and material to your business.....NOT" People know us from word of mouth and because we do a good job.

Now some of the guys that work with me if they are not driving or working (and some need to be reminded to stop screwing off while working) the smart phone might as well be an appendage.When we decide to give a raise/bonus the amount of goofing off vs. the amount of work is a factor in who gets a better raise.This year a young(compared to myself) Ex-Marine got the best bonus of any non-partner we have other vets who are less skilled keeping busy.


For the younger guys someone is always watching so best to show up on time and not to leave early you might not get in trouble right away but when times get tight the dead weight gets cut and as I said the better workers get better raises and bonuses when they work for a half way decent employer. So do not Twitter while at work even if you see others doing so.
