Who Here on the Org Does NOT Own a Cell Phone?

Show of hands. wave

I don't have a cell phone, probably because I'm still looking for a permanent job (working as a temp now), and I'm trying to keep expenses down. Also because I guess I never really had a use for one.
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

It was pretty essential when I was at university. But Im not in2 all the latest mod cons. It does its job and it plays the ringtone I want so Im content with that.

I am annoyed by phones and by people talking on them in public and will probably never own one.

I hate those fucking things.

Though recently, I'm starting to think of cell phones the way I think of bratty kids...it's not the child you should scorn, but the stupid-ass parents who can't raise 'em right. In other words, maybe owning a cell phone is a good idea, but every time I have to endure another ass-wad sitting next to me on the train blabbing away at full lung, it occurs to me that I'd rather stick a hot poker in my eye than do anything that would make me become such an annoying person.






can you edit me now?

I don't have one. Most people don't NEED one. Well, except maybe in a disaster... I can't stand people that drive really erratic because they can't talk and drive at the same time.

I have had the same cell phone number since 1989,and its very easy to remember. I love the flexibility of having a communication device that saves me time when I am working.

I don't.
I should have one but I don't like the idea of always being available by phone.
I can get in the car or go outside to escape phones.
If I get a cellphone I will always have to explain why I didn't pick up or why I didn't call back or where I've been or who I've been with.

You SO nailed it! This is the precise reason I have no cell phone.

It is slowly becoming a part of my life.

Although I am still irritated that people use it when ever, where ever.

U could always "leave it in your car" wink
or "leave it in your jacket pocket" wink
or "be on low battery" wink
or "blame it on unreliable technoligy" wink

I have one, but don't like the idea of being
able to be found at the drop of a hat.
Alot of times, if you call me, it goes "unanswered"

I'll call YOU back!
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

I don't own one. It is the height of annoyance to have people picking up while I'm tryin to chill at Barnes and Noble or somewhere like that. I was at a wedding recently when someone's went off ~ the epitome of rudeness in my opinion. I don't like missing calls from friends but if they leave a message I will call back as soon as I receive it.
