So, I admit, I'm a little old fashioned, but when I was young and at work at a food place, we weren't allowed to have pagers on the floor. We weren't allowed to make personal phone calls up front. We were getting paid by the hour, and so when we were on the clock, we were expected to work.
So with texting somehow, my staff doesn't think these same rules apply. They think it's ok to sit there and text while I bust my ass baking, doing dishes, telling them to tidy the front of the house.
Finally, I had enough, and started making snide comments to them about texting. Yes, I know full well this isn't the best behavior. But seriously, I'd like to make an outlaw policy, but my husband says I shouldn't; that I should just let them have their texting. But seriously???
