Those little yellow pieces of paper help remind me of things I have to do. For instance, when I check my E-Mail and I see that there are several Post replies from the BB, I write down what the Posts are, then delete them and go to FAOL.
(That’s how I do it)
Being my own worst critic for most of my life, is not always a good thing. I have learned that I HAVE to make mistakes in order to learn.
It’s about being balanced. Don’t Flame (ranting is good therapy though)
This applies to me, Don’t bash yourself for making a mistake! Say your sorry and move on.
I am fascinated how difficult it is to communicate through the written word.
I decided to write down Do’s and Don’ts of what I need to watch out for on the BB.
- Hot button topics; I have my pet peeves and I don’t want to get mad replying to someone’s topic (raining on their parade)
- Flexible communication; If I don’t want to normally reply to someone’s topic, then I send a PM instead.
One person was even flattered that I took the time send a PRIVATE message! - Save the Jokes for when you get to know the person. I want to be sensitive to someone in another country also. GBF I have a feeling you will comment on this! :lol:
Communicating with new people and people from different countries, reminds me of Jack Webb from the old TV show, “JUST THE FACTS MAAM!”
It’s OK to be a little more friendly than Jack (Dragnet Police Show)
