I'll admit that I will judge a person based on how they're speaking. Having not used that language, I will say that it seems that is becoming the 'normal' Even when visiting customers now, those words just are in their natural speech now. However, I watch TV shows/movies where the language is just a blue, and it doesn't seem to bother me. Youtube videos do bother me though. Maybe something about having a scripted reason to say it, vs just saying to to fill time?

I would have thought he would have toned it down as my wife was in the meeting. After he left I told a manufacturer’s rep about it and he contacted the guys boss and the next thing I know the guy is apologizing. Was not trying to cause him problems as work, just asking for a sanity check. I have been in probably thousands of board and business meetings over the years, and don’t recall anyone ever being gratuitous in the use of the F word. I do recall one of the big bosses at Harris Broadcast in Quincy Il complaining about their director of sales being too salty for high end businesses meetings. Then yesterday I was taken to task by a video blogger which had done a pretty good job in his Tesla review except for the F bomb every other sentence. I told him it was about as welcome as a fart in an elevator. He thinks I am too old to have a valid opinion. I guess he is one of those thin skinned millennials... TV shows it all the time, but I don’t think it is common in the business world. Perhaps Utah is in a bubble? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
