This reminds me of a funny story. When I was younger, I was working full time as an agent in a real estate office, driving one hour each way to go to college full time and raising 2 small children with little help from my working hubby. My male boss called me into his office one day to tell me all about the, "one touch rule." He gave me a lengthy lecture on it, implying that I might be wasting time, in spite of being one of his best producers in the office. I often wonder if he reflects back on that conversation and ponders the fact that maybe it was a mistake. Probably not. I quit a month later and he went bankrupt a year later.
That being said...it is a good rule.
