Rude, Crud, And Vulgar To... Gee I Wonder Why I’m Not Getting Any Leads....Rude, Crud, And Vulgar To... Gee I Wonder Why I’m Not Getting Any Leads....

I can’t believe I have to actually have to bring this up to any business person in this day and age.

But, hey you jerks out there, knock it off!!!!!

Stop going to mixers and networking events and groping and garbbing and being a rude, crude, vulgar, Neanderthal. Not only is it extremely bad for business but it can get you thrown in jail.

No doubt some of you are reading this and thinking, come on, no one is this stupid... That’s what I thought til I started to talk to some of the women out there. This type of conduct is very prevalent out there. Especially at Chamber Mixers. Little things like going up to women and "adjusting their name tag". So, how is that offensive? As the name tags are usually placed on a persons chest, going up to someone and touching them on the chest (as in "breast") is not very nice behavior. In fact in the eyes of the law it can be considered Sexual Battery. So keep your hands to yourselves.

If you still think I’m out of line on bringing this up, at the next mixer you go to look at all the men in the room. Look at where they wear their name tags. Now look at the women in the room. See the difference. Any woman that has been subjected to this and is sick of it, will have their name tag attached away from their chest. Even if there is only one woman, that’s one too many.

Personally if I was a woman and any man did that to me I would raise hell over it. I would slap the bastard, complain to the Chamber, and call the police.

So, guys, stop being total jerks and clean up your act before you meet up with the a women that knows she has the right not to have you grabbing at her.

It’s not nice, it’s bad for business, and if.... just if you do it, and she screams, do you really want to deal with that?. So at business mixers, stick to the business at hand and leave the ‘Monkey" business out of it.
