You can get away with not returning emails for a few days. But we expect people to respond to text messages a little faster. So is this rude?
A new poll found 43% of Americans currently have unread texts that they’re ignoring. And most of them AREN’T spam.
The average person has 47 unread texts . . . and 56% of those are from friends and family. The other 44% are from brands, companies, or scammers. Here are a few more stats from the survey . . .
1. Unread emails are still far more common than unread texts. Two-thirds of us currently have unread emails in our inbox . . . the average is 1,602 of them.
2. 32% of people said they have ZERO unread emails right now.
3. Texting is still the fastest-growing form of communication. 51% of people say they’re texting more than they were a year ago.
4. The top people we enjoy getting a text from are our friends and siblings, followed by our parents.
5. The #1 person we DON’T want to get a text from is our boss. But the poll also found that texting people at work is much more common than it used to be.
