Mistakes Made in Informal Communication

If informal communication is supposed to be like walking around the house in slippers and a tank top, then how is it possible to make a mistake in this format. The video posted above is a great example of how mistakes occur. Sure it is a silly cartoon video if a few animals, but it makes perfect sense. As you see the only animal with the descent informal communication skills was the rabbit and he was the only one that survived. It took a simple question to keep him alive and that was to take him off the list. The other animals lacked that simple skill and they did not last.

A few key mistakes made in informal communication are:

1. Negative attitude
2. Not asking important questions
3. Just not caring

There aren't many mistakes you can make when having an informal conversation but there are a few things to try and avoid. I believe if you are good at having an informal conversation you can teach yourself to be formal when needed.
