in a world as connected as we are, i completely understand that attachment to our cell phones that we all have. believe me, i do. just yesterday, my dad said from across the room, "m. is this your phone? i don't think i have ever seen it not on your person". but really...how hard is it to be a little more polite when it comes to cell phones in public places?
honestly, i get off my cell if i am encountering a cashier or something like that. or i ask my friend to hold up a sec and place my order or whatever. when i am on the receiving end of things like this, it makes me feel a lot better. however, if you are an asshole who continues their conversation while sort of asking for cigs, etc on the dl...holy shit am i gonna be a dick to you. i most likely will be very loud when asking if i can help you with anything, telling you your total, or telling you to have a FABULOUS day. i just cannot stand rudeness. it's like...seriously, give me a little effin respect you assclowns.
the same thing kind of goes for people who yell into their cells in a public place. no one wants to hear the sordid details of whatever they hell you are talking about. take it outside, or in your car. i've legitimately heard people yelling into their cells about things that look like they could be infected "down there" WOW HOW DISCREET ARE YOU PEOPLE?!?!?! omfg. i can't even.
the other day i managed to get a combo of the two things that i just mentioned...in one person. ugh. first, came an example of the latter description. this lady is standing in front of my service desk flat out YELLING into her phone about some stupid shit, being all obnoxious and yelling "I DONT KNOW WHY SHE DIDNT KNOW. ITS NOT LIKE I DIDNT TELL HER". and we're all kind of standing there like what the hell? so she goes away and i think i am done. not so much, to my chagrin. like 20 minutes later, i am talking with a customer who i do not particularly LIKE but he's a regular so whatever. anyway, we're discussing something mundane, when i hear that voice yelling behind him "and whatever the PPD thinks i am crazy cause when the cops came to my house i started screaming at them blah blah blah" and i couldnt even see her cause the other customer was blocking her but i just opened my eyes REALLY wide. and the guy i was talking to started laughing and was like "well, looks like we had the same thought" so he steps away and lets me as her "Hi, can i help you with anything?" (all bright, loud and cheery, because she's the twat on her cell phone), and she nastily says "YEAH. you CAN. give me a box of newports" and i'm like...wow bitch. knock it off. so i go to tell her the total, and she cuts me off (well. not really me) and says to who ever is on the other side of her phone call " god, i can;t even talk on the phone in this store without people giving me dirty looks" and then SHOOTS me a look! hahaha WHAT! so i told ehr to have a nice day and she just screams WHATEVER at me and snaches the reciept out of my hand.
i like, lost it. this woman was beyonnnnnnnnnnnnd! who does that! haha i am like shocked.
let this be a lesson, don't talk on your cell phone like a retard. just sayin.
