Five seconds spent staring at someone is an eternity if they know you’re looking. I don’t know what else to say.
Everyone gets that, but I don’t like making a rule out of it.
No one made a rule about it. I’m not sure why you keep saying this.
It’s on the table. And you seem totally in favor of such policing of people’s behavior. I’m also opposed to the whole concept of this. Corporate suits telling people how to act makes me uncomfortable. And since we’re all supposed to care about uncomfortable everyone is…
I would definitely consider anyone who stares at someone for more than five seconds to be “socially inept.”
#metoo
Socially inept people aren’t going anywhere, though. Another problem is that sometimes you can be looking at something else and someone might just think you’re looking at them. There are so many obvious ways that this line of thinking lacks nuance and is unfair.
