they never put the phones down even at work. When he speaks to them, whether for important matters or polite small talk, they look up from their phones and look annoyed, like they're barely tolerating the disruption, and as soon as he's done talking they look at their phones again. He's not their supervisor, so he can't say anything. But he's pretty down on the millennials and younger generation and their rudeness and lack of social skills, even though we have sons who also can't put down their phones (although not at work).
