Trucker 1: Breaker Breaker – I’m at the chicken coup just before hitting the Big D. Anything I should know out there? Come Back
Trucker 2: Don’t pass the double nickel . There is a bear in the air and a green stamp collector up ahead.
Trucker 1: Thanks Good Buddy. I don’t need a Christmas card today. I’ll Catch you on the flip side. I’m gone.
Trucker 1: I need to break in your conversation for a moment. I am at the weigh station just outside Dallas. Are there any wrecks or radar out there I should know about.
Trucker 2: Whatever you do, do not go over 55 mph. There is a helicopter in the air and radar set up ahead of you.
Trucker 1: Thanks. The last think I need is a speeding ticket. I’ll talk to you on my return trip. Thanks and we will talk later.
As business has evolved, email became essential to the company and the business for quick communication
How much time do you currently spend in email?
How many email accounts do you have? If your email goes down can you still do
business ?
How many of you have moved into the world of texting?
Texting is great because it goes with our busy life style.
It is faster than email. We do not have to listen to the stuff we are
not interested in. Why does the younger generation even have
an email account? PANIC – left phone at home – No email _ no
Text – No Twittering!!! OH NO!!
