Even when I worked in wireless and abused my cell phone, I never used it in those places. When I teach classes, I tell the Realtors that I understand they need their phones to ring, but if they're expecting a call to sit near the door and step out to take it. Also, put it on vibrate. Everyone has been great about it. Oh, cell phones in a restaurant, on an elevator, mass transit, etc. still bugs the living daylights out of me.

This would drive me nuts about eight or nine years ago. Not even sales agents shut their phones off these days when they go to someones office for a meeting. At best, you can expect them to put it on vibrate. So true…I’m finding that it doesn’t even bother me when someone is using a phone in a restaurant.

Last night I was actually talking to a few people at the Beer with Bloggers Inman Connect event about Generation Y (which I apparently am a poster-child for) and they were completely enthralled in the idea that I have 5 different email addresses that I check on my phone plus a chat program plus of course the phone part of it all. The part that cracked me up the most was when someone asked me "So if you email me, should I call you right away?" I had to laugh when I said, "NO! If I emailed you, I want you to email me back."
