Rude People And Cell Phones
So - there I am at lunch and after witnessing a fight break out in line at one place, leaving another becuase three Mexican women cut directly in front of me and then proceeded to place like 19 orders and they spoke no English - I went to another place to get my Diet Coke. Well, the a$$hole in front of me is on his MOTHER F*C*ING cell phone talking about the weekend. So, I said to him "Excuse me sir, but if you stopped talking on you cell phone, maybe you could order and quit holding up the NINE people in line behind you
 " -- Like most cell phone users he could not possibly see that he had been rude and proceeded to pick a fight with me. I just sort of moved past him (while he was still on the phone mind you ) - and placed my order and left.I swear - what is it with people who think that the world can just wait for them while they do everything else but what they are there to do VENT VENT VENT!!!!!!

Tell me about it..
If I'm serving a customer, the amount of assholes that take a call when you are trying to serve them or ask for payment and they either ignore you or don't have the manners to at least say excuse me! Arrrggghhhhh!!
I feel like saying "f**k off outside with that please and come back when you're finished!"  I disagree with the experts and think that cell phone use really does decrease brain cell efficiency..

I work for a cell phone company, and I hate them too. Probably because I'm required to have mine on 24/7, and answer it no matter where I am or what I'm doing...
 I promise I do my best to be considerate though...

ITA. Isn't it funny how just a few years ago most people didn't have one? Now we can't live without them! I swear, if I get behind one more asshole doing 50 in the left lane on the interstate, chatting away on his/her cell phone, I'm gonna go ballistic!! Sheez!

This lady at the grocey store in line in front of me a few years ago just could be bothered to pay for her stuff or pay any attention to anything the cashier was saying. After a minute of so of that crap, I grabbed her cell, slammed it shut, and screamed at her PLAN YOUR FUC*(NG WEEKEND ON YOUR OWN TIME
- once again, she could not imagine why I did that or why the five or so people in line behind me were applauding

Oh, and my dad works for Cingular, and has since they were "Bellsouth Mobility." So...since they paid for my tuition
 guess I'd better not be too harsh. But people, please, use some manners, 'k?

You? Are my hero I HATE HATE HATE the way people are using cell phones today. Cell phones have totally made for the "rudening" of America - though I hear it's bad in other countries too... I use discretion with mine - don't enjoy blabbing about in public etc....And why oh why do people have to talk twice as loud on cellphones than they normally do???

He's a field engineer (one of the first in the area), so he's one of the older guys with lots of experience who gets called out to "fix" stuff all the time. No tellin' if he's ever been paid what he's worth to them, honestly.

Ppfftt!!
Most people with cellphones make me wanna hurt people. I don't have one, but my dad does and he only uses it to call my grandmother and for emergencies. Same with my mom, emergencies only.
I did have a pay-as-you-go phone in England, and it was WAY cheaper to call my parents/have them call me using 10-10-987. WTH do lil 12 year olds have cell phones?  Remember they used to be called car phones and they were HUGE! LOL My uncle had one of those gigantic ones back in the day, and we thought that was the greatest thing ever...now, people abuse them. Get off the damn phone and drive/listen to me/order your friggin' meal/etc.

 But you can tell him we all appreciate the job our field engineers do. Without them, all the shady sales people would have no one pin the blame on when angry customers bitch about lack of coverage...

 I don't have, don't want one. I put them on the same plane as pagers. Unless your a emergency career type or on the road alot (say a salesperson) You shouldn't have one! I just don't see the need.
