Not just in the business sense, but doesn't this seem like the typical over-steer correction made by a society living a "fake" reality propped up by social media and smart-phones that have disabled people from natural, non-forced, genuine desire to communicate would embrace?
The old standards of referral, way too many i.e. Hi, bye, how are you?, what's up?, please, thank you, and now this b.s. banter of always asking your name. it's all a waste and an easy nervous response to act genuine.
As a mid-westerner, this is exactly why I've always liked NYC. No time for all this blah blah bullshit. People from other parts of the country think NYC living is rude, but to me, it's spot on. Being too polite or fakely PC is in fact rude because you're wasting society's time.
*side note - some idiot where I live just walked into a open manhole that had the cover off while staring down at his phone texting when walking down the road. I guess he was having a hard time communicating reality to himself. Ha!
False existences perpetuate fakeness. Expect this to increase.
