I don't think that assuming people who had to communicate more in person, in social settings, are more social people with better interpersonal skills. You do something more you'll get better at it.

Social media is something that helps people avoid social situations. Instead of going to the park or joining a sport or hanging out at the local comix shop with other nerds you can now turn on Call of Duty and rawr on Chiefsplanet...

And this has lead to a communication breakdown in corporate america how?

My point is he is taking his challenges as [Insert repetitive job here] and assuming that is going on everywhere. That's why his OP, and subsequent posts have been fraught with poorly conceived generalizations.

I wasn't talking about corporate America. I'm just talking about younger people.

And I don't think it was their fault. The kids didn't create the social media or the Cell phones/Video games/computers they grew up with since age 6.

Agreed. I'm responding more to conversation in the thread than the thread starter...
