I am just going to throw this out there because it is on my mind. I visited a Lodge last night that I had never been to. I was invited by a friend and I had not been to Lodge for a while so I was very excited. When we arrived we saw that most members were dressed in suit and tie. We went inside and realized that there was to be a Masters. I was very excited as this is a wonderful experience to be a part of, even more so if you get to participate which I did. This Lodge is of average size and seems to have a good mix of brothers that regularly attend. Once inside the Lodge Room I observed a brother that was txting while the WM was opening the Lodge and throughout the evening. I was really blown away that not only was he being so disrespectful to the WM and Brethren but to the candidate. I can honestly say that at my regular Lodge I have never seen this and it honestly bothered me. I guess I can see if you had an emergency or were waiting for some important communication checking your phone but sending and receiving txt messages while the Lodge is open???? Am I the only one that is put off by this??
