for the under 40 crowd, this 63 year old conducts business, communicates with children and rents men via texts. I was recently in a school where the teacher communicated with his students who were spread around the campus working in various small groups. Then I realized he communicates with me via texts, too.
I would have no idea what my son (34) is doing were it not for texts. I can't remember talking-to him on the phone. In fact, when I attempt to call him, he texts me to ask why I called.
When I comes to hiring, I find my gentlemen callers to communicate more frequently with me through texts, setting up the meet, keeping up-to-date on his travel, and after action affection and appreciation all via texts.
Having an iPhone and MacBook, most of my escorts are on the Messages app, so I can respond using my MacBook and keyboard...
I haven't had a landline in 15 years. My company recently updated their telephony to a digital online system so I have a local number in a town 2000 miles away on my iPhone.
