Tealeaf, you really are very wicked and intent on not meeting yer next birthday
My experience of men on the mobile is completely opposite to what you have stated. If you have ever done a trade exhibition, sat on a train or any type of business seminar, you are constantly overpowered by the amount of calls the gentlemen reps make on their mobiles.. constantly ringing customers, the office and any other Tom, Dick or Harry that will talk to them. They are vociferous and walk around the floor whilst carrying out these communications with buzz words and an authoritative attitude just to impress the others in hearing distance. To boot, they are
not short conversations.
Of the few calls I have had to do myself, I have sat myself down quietly, out of site if possible and not wishing any competitors around me to earwig.
To cap it all, lots of this breed still favour the Nokia ring tone .. funny to watch them when one is activated and approximately 6 look at their mobiles to see if is theirs .. tee heee. Constantly lookin at it anyway !
Yes, they do also make personal calls too, particularly towards the end of the day and give an account to their wives/girlfriends of their 'successful' day (aren't I a clever boy) and how their progress home will be attempted. Discuss their evening meal and ask how the kids are since the morning !!
Most of these calls can wait.. so please do not go on about women on the phone.
With my personal mobile, I am just like Margaret ... text rather than talk, and have it in silent mode all the time.
