Something to be wary of

[Riverkilt]

Aging olde geezer that I am I still prefer the phones with wires. Mine seldom rings and when it does its usually a robodialer. So no need, and therefore no risk, for cellphones.

I seldom have a client in therapy anymore that their cell phone doesn't ring and they interrupt to check it, or even take the call. Its their time so I just wait it out.

I do have to admit I've developed a very nasty habit around cell phones. Every time I pass an oncoming driver yacking away on a cell phone I toot my car horn ever so briefly as we pass. Hardly ever fail to get a flinch, and hopefully a brief return to reality from the other driver.

Gratefully, my kilt hose, sporran, belt, vest pockets et.al. remain unencumbered by a wireless yacking device.

And, whenever I try to call someone on their cell phone they are out of minutes or not taking messages. If I do manage to get through the reception is very poor around here...still struggle to figure out why folks pay so much every month for devices that just don't work well - if at all.

But, I'm olde....
