Technology and Transfer

As technology advances, it seems as though we have fewer opportunities to transfer:

• Pizza, flowers, airline tickets, hotel rooms and rental cars are generally easier, quicker and (sometimes) cheaper to order online.
• More people are using their cellphone as their primary phone, so when you call someone, you are generally calling them directly.
• With caller ID, if someone calls us, we know who they are before we answer
• Email in the workplace has gotten completely out of hand - it has gotten so much easier to send someone an email instead of calling them or talking to them in person.

Thankfully, we still have that staple of target transfer, the beloved fast food drive-thru window. Fortunately for those of us who are searching for an opportunity to transfer targets, the fast food resturant industry has not developed a faster, cheaper or more efficient way of providing us with our food that does not involve us yelling into a speaker and waiting for a barely audible response.
