Q Option 1: The Clash of Ages: How Technology Divides Workers You will use information from the NPR audio clip from activity 2 for this post. Separate your post into paragraphs of 3-4 sentence answering each question. 1. At the time this clip was produced, a study found that 62% of Gen Y workers admitted checking their social networks while at work. Do you think we would find similar results if the survey was conducted today? If not, would the percentage be higher or lower? Why? 2. What are the policies at your job governing the use of technology during work hours? Do you feel these policies are justified and beneficial to the organization? 3. Do you agree with Sharon Allen's opinion that companies should not put too many restrictions on employees use of social networking during work hours in order to maintain a healthy work/life balance. Why or why not? 4. How are the tips regarding the use of social media at work different from what is presented in the video Business Etiquette and Office Etiquette in activity 3? 5. Think about your own cross generational interactions, what are two ways (aside from what is discussed in this clip) that generational differences can impact interpersonal communication in the workplace?

I feel the percentage would be much higher if they conducted the survey today. People are much more depended on their phones these days. Especially in the pandemic period, we all got more used to using our phones for getting things done. Social media is a big part of our daily lives now. People update and check multiple social media accounts regularly to stay connected to people online.
