DEGRADE OUR PERFORMANCE

WORK

Recently, a research revealed that more than 72% employees in every company spend about 1 to 1.5 hours on social networking sites such as Twitter, on matters that had no relation to their jobs. Even though they have lots of work to do at their workplace, they still locate some of their time to "log in" into Twitter. They feel like this site has been very crucial to their life since they have become addictive to it. They will not focus on their work because they always think about their status is getting "retweet" by their friends. Thus, this will give an impact in their work performance as lots of work are not completed during office hours. This is a reality that happens nowadays.

SCHOOL

It has been proved that students who use Twitter excessively had a low attention span thus score low grades. In the old days, students were assigned homework and had to go home and put forth some effort to complete their assignments. But because of today's technology of communication such as Twitter, students tend to give up too soon by just asking their online members. They will just simply tweet something about what they don't know and their friends may help them. After all, they will end up talking and chatting with their friends and do no revision. This completely shows that they didn't take seriously about their studies. This may lead them to failure in examination and result in their performance.
