Social Skills are more important than Math

[Busted_Toes]

Communication is easily the most important skill and they should put more emphasis on it in school. I don't use any Math today.

- How to greet an individual
- How to introduce yourself to a group of people
- How to introduce a friend to a group of people
- How to say goodbye
- Public Speaking
- Small Talk
- Storytelling
- Being Assertive
- Speaking with CACs

If you have these skills you can navigate any room with any people.

I'm joining ToastMasters to up my skills

Both are equally important

You can't teach social skills
You can slightly improve the basics
But the rest is based on looks, height, voice, and propensity for violence(for men)

I talked to 5 people yesterday and then another 2 today
I have 11 new friends

No, you can teach social skills.

The myth that it is not something that can be taught is one of the barriers that limits kids who go to government schools.

All that fancy math after 8th grade with the letters and triangles - is pointless.

But I use adding, subtracting, and multiplication everyday.

If you plan on getting rich - then you better know your math.

Math is life.

The calculator app is life.

Also, knowing how to write an email is also important... mastery of the english language.... being persuasive thru written text.

Ehh depends on your line of work.

I work in IT with people who are socially awkward as fukk but are engineering geniuses. They still getting promoted and many have a wife and kids.

Hate to break it to you. Those people are not your friends.

All that math you hate is the basis for the phone/tablet/computer that you use to post these god awful opinions

[KidJSoul]

I wouldn't say more important... but I get the point

Social skills ARE VERY important to your quality of life.

They can be taught or learned, but it's difficult for some, especially if you have apsergerd

Trust me, the coli academic bourgeoisie class bout to come in here to tell you how dumb you are and how you don’t understand how math is used to even allow you to make a thread on the internet. They gonna scoff at such a preposterous assertion. I’m telling you, that’s what they gonna do
