Is it just me that thinks it's rude for people to put an in-person conversation on hold to respond to a FB notification or other text message? Person doing it is retired, not involved in any family emergencies. It's just a FB conversation. I think it says 'you are not as important as FB'. Or am I just old fashioned? Can't you wait until we are done talking?

When I meet people, I turn off my phone.
It is rude to look at your phone while in conversation. The message is you are not important.
