Rules Apply, Especially Before 9 AM!!

I think its probably happened to everyone. Somewhere in your sleepy sub-conscience you are aware that it’s a weekend, and its early. Suddenly, a violent chirp or murderous ringtone bursts through the calm sleep you fought so hard to get. Blindly you reach for the rude object, knocking over glasses and books. Finally the phone is in your hand, and checking the message it says:” This is just a message to the most wonderful person I know. NOW YOU ARE ON THE CLOCK! Forward this to 10 wonderful people you know in the next 5 minutes, or you will lose al your friends!” Feeling the fury slowly mounting, you look at the clock. It’s 7:15 AM. Sleep will be impossible now.

Whoever sent you the message won’t think you are such a wonderful person when you answer their message with a few choice words!

In my experience, it is an unspoken rule never to text, BBM, Whatsapp, phone or email someone before 9 AM. Its just common courtesy. I could understand if the time zones differed, but even that is a stretch.

Possibly, the rules of society are falling away. Men don’t hold open doors for women anymore, children don’t offer their chairs to the elderly and apparently now its ok to bother people at the crack of dawn.

Do parents not teach their children these things anymore? If so, I believe we may be cursed to a life of utter horror.As said by a genius person somewhere under the sun:

“I hate it when I don’t forward a chain message and I die the next day.”

Imagine having 16 calls, 7 urgent emails and 34 pointless messages at 6 AM. Be afraid.... be  very afraid!!!

So now that you have read this post you have to forward the link to 12 people. If you don’t, your hair will fall out and you’ll get hit by a bus. But if you do forward it you will win the lottery and become famous. Oh sorry, you weren’t still asleep were you?

Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.........
