The 1 Vegetable that Will Make Your Legal Nurse Consulting Business Soar
Gaming apps are fun and are all the rage. While I admit I’ve rejected them outright and therefore am probably not qualified to have an opinion on them, I have one anyway… I’m sure games have their place, and in my opinion their place is not at the breakfast, lunch or dinner table or in the attorney’s conference room. Playing “Words with Friends” can wait until you’ve had words, and meals, with family. Tom and I ban smartphones from the table at home and in restaurants with or without friends. Checking texts and email during a meal is the social equivalent of picking your nose in public or saying to your BFF, “This conversation is really interesting, but excuse me while I score three more points…”
Crunch all the candy you want, but let’s face it, this seems like a crazy waste of time for any RN wanting to build a successful legal nurse consulting business. I’ll stick to crunching kale and leave the candy crunching to those who have way too much free time on their hands.
I’m Just Sayin’
P.S.Comment here and share your rules on smartphone use – at the dinner table or otherwise.
I have to concur! I thought I was the only one thinking there should be some meaningful conversation at the dinner table or at some point during the day. Quite annoying to walk up to a group of people to say hello or sit down to dinner and everyone has their head down in a phone or tablet. Love the analogy!
Vickie, I agree. Having others on their phone at the table makes you feel like you aren’t important. I don’t like online gaming. If you must play it, sparingly is the key. I just met you at the CLNC® 6-Day Certification Seminar in Philly and told you of how my son has been tragically harmed by online/smart phone gaming. Learn from me, people – don’t allow your kids to do online gaming. Nothing good comes from it.
Totally agree. At the lunch table where I work, all the staff are on their phones. I decided long ago to spend my lunch time wisely. Food shopping. I get that done so I do not have to after work. Then I make a healthy lunch when I get back. Costs less than ordering out. My favorite place is the farmer’s market.

Vickie, I couldn’t agree with you more! Am I the only one who is limited to 24 hours in a day?

The seminar was great Vickie! Thank you so much!
