I work at a retail/wholesale/commercial//internet store. Less sometimes in the retail side of things but they still come in. Here is the deal! Please follow along.

Customer walks in: I say. Hi how can I help you? He has a cell phone and said hold on I have call. I leave and go back to my office.

He calls out for me (after his cell phone call is done) and said where did you go? I said I had work to do also! We start to talk and he gets another cell call and tells me to hold on.

Again I go back to what I was doing and he calls me back out again and asks me what my problem was? I said what problem? He said I am trying to buy/have service done or what ever and asked me why I kept leaving. (do I need to go on?)

Who puts up with this shit?

Is it me? I don't think so!

Keep your cell phones in the car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It will be cold day in hell when I deal with this kind of arrogance

And yes I can afford it!!!!!!!!

[I love my cellphone and I use it all the time, no matter how rude it is. I have a bluetooth headset that I only remove when bathing. It makes me look really hi-tech and cyborgy.
I like to talk really loud in public to annoy those around me, and If I'm someplace where most people don't have lots of money, I like to shout things like "no way I'm paying 18 million for that property! It's not even worth 15 million! I'll give you 14.5, tops."
It's a PDA phone with internet browsing, so when I'm in a restaurant, I can tell the waiter to wait a minute before I order- "I'm making a big stock transaction online, I'll be right with you."
Makes me feel like a real big-shot. I always try to have the loudest, most annoying ringtone available, too.
I love to talk loudly in public about the most mundane things so that everyone around can hear me, like arranging an oil change or a lunch date, for instance.
Hey, I've got a 2" penis, that's why I drive a crewcab longbed dually with a 454! I've got to do something to feel like a man.
]

LOL! Today I needed that! Perfect!

Those of us who have grown up without all of the latest technology distractions can understand how much better the world used to be...the only thing I don't miss is having to stop by a greasy 7-11 pay phone while on the road to check messages.

We are creating a world of impatient instant gratification morons who have no respect for others.
