And so they don't have the same frame of reference that older generations did.

And so when I talk to younger groups, I try not to be like, these are all the things that you're doing wrong.

Please fix it.

But I try to enlighten them that this is how some of these habits can come across.

Like, for example, I was at a university last week and

It came up that many of the students who received business cards at a career fair were texting the people that they received business cards to instead of emailing because they don't really like using email and they just thought texting was more appropriate, where I would recommend if like.

You want to get a job.

You want to get an internship.

Someone gives you their business card and it has their physical address, their email, and their cell phone and their office number.

Email is probably the best means of communicating with them because it's less disruptive for the day.

They can read it on their own time.

You're probably going to be

writing something a little bit longer.

So that's just one example.

Yeah.

And I think with the phone, it comes with time.

Like I know millennials that were not comfortable when they first graduated and they were working.

Like I think of one person in particular who was working in sales and was very uncomfortable at first on the phone.

And with practice, you get better and the confidence comes.

I love that question.
