Rants

Ring tones. I still do not understand why people would pay money for them in the first place. Or that people actually use them. Of course I have a special situation I suppose. I work in a corporate environment a lot of the time.

I am in meetings, or sitting around a bunch of people, whether that is starbucks, or an office environment. Having a ring tone go off lets everyone around me know I'm getting a phone call. As many phone calls as I get in a day, it would be annoying people every 5 minutes.

When the place you are at is too noisy, you can always feel your phone ringing, when you are someplace like the movies you forget to put it on vibrate and then it will get you.

So I guess I dont believe in that noise. I keep it on vibrate all of the time. It vibrates in my pocket, or on my desk. Even when I'm in the other room or something, I can still hear it vibrate. I guess I dont understand what all the hype is about these ring tones. Usually they just wind up embarrasing you dont they?

Keep your phones on vibrate people.
