...a cell phone that is. My wife begged and begged me for about a year. I just hate the "Status" that goes along with them. People annoy me on them and I wouldn't get one on principle. And I can't stand people who I meet from personal reasons or business who ask "So whats your cell number?" and then look at me crosseyed like i have 3 heads when I say we didn't have one. and then the stupid sales man gives me this worried speech about that if I go over my minutes its VERY expensive. so I ask him how many I get and he says 500. I almost fell on the floor laughing and felt like telling him if I go over 500 minutes in a month then I will name my first born after him. What a douche bag. He told me that averages 15 minutes a day. I am not on the phone more than about 5min per week anyway. Well that is my rant. I will still stomp people that have phones in quiet places. I love my job now because we get to confiscate them if they ring in our building and the people don't get them back.

Give it time brother. Once you have it, it'll become so convient you'll just be using it all the time to call your lady, etc. I used to think the same way you do.Originally posted by stonecold54
I understand talking for work purposes but I just can't see that there is that much to talk about in the world, lol.

hey Bouncer do u only pay $50 or with taxes like $56 or so. I saw the same deal at the mall with a friend, 1000 minutes, free nights and weekends, nationwide, etc for $50.
I got a boost right now for $1.50 a day of free radio and a Cingular Cell that expires on October. Was thinking of going Nextel and that 50dollar plan.

i lve having a cell phone but at times it gets annoying. Like i always would tell my girlfriend "how come no one calls me", would get calls in a while. All of a sudden its off the hook, got people calling me left and right. Gets annoying, but I guess thats how it is.:(

I don't have a landline either....it just doesn't make sense not to have one these days....if you don't talk on the phone much like me, then you can get a cheap plan thats less expensive than a land line and you have free long distance from wherever you are. And, you have voice mail. I'm single and this is the best option for me. Plus, my company pays for it, because I use it mainly for work related issues.
I can relate to you SC on the fact that people seem to be so enamored with those stupid little things like they are gold or something. People go around thinking they are almost more powerful talking on them. I went into the Nextel store to shop for a new phone recently, and there were all these morons hanging out in there like it was the local bar, playing with cell phones. What a bunch of pathetic douche bags.
:rolleyes:

I feel the same way about cell phones. I refuse to get one. My girlfriend along with all my friends are constantly on my case about not having one. I thought I was the only person on earth who did not have one. But now you got one, so I guess I am the only one. :D
