Text message etiquette?
I comissioned a young guy (21 y.o.) to do a pencil portrait of the step dtrs. During the course of the deal I saved his name on my cell phone and it appears first in my phone book ("Aaron"). Occasionally I will look at my phone and due to a "butt" dial, my address book will be open and showing his name.
I get a text from this yahoo as follows: "Quit f*kcing sending me blank texts, a**hole." Huh? I rarely text anyone so I go to my outbox/msgs sent and find no record of any outgoing texts to him. So I guess somehow I butt dialed texts to him.
Anyways...I've deleted his name so it won't inadvertently text him. But his msg seems a bit extreme. Wouldn't a simple phone call to me to let me know what was happening be more appropriate. I know its a minor thing but it just seemed a bit off the wall.
FWIW the portrait turned out well and I paid him 50% more than he quoted me because it took him a bit longer than expected.
