This week, we talk about the etiquette of telephone communication.

This week, we talk about the etiquette of telephone communication, answering this question:

"I still feel that important news, or friendly, perhaps overdue hellos are best done on the phone – on a phone call that is. I have heard that it's actually rude to call people these days. Do I need to get with the times or are phone calls still OK, as long as they are not too early or late in the day? I see people texting constantly. How is it texting is more acceptable than a phone call?"
