Yes, I send over 3,000 txts and 250 emails monthly and am a compulsive mobile device checker/user.
Yes, I need help finding hope outside my inbox.
Yes, during dinner, I am inclined to reach for my phone and check the notifications of new messages and/or information being received.
Yes, if we're in the car for any length of time, I may go silent and indulge in a little mobile connectivity.
Yes, if we're debating an issue and I need more resources, I will stop to Gooooogle the topic and educate myself.
Yes, I receive complaints.
BUT I'd never utilize my mobile device in the midst of serious conversation or in sensitive situations.
AND that sucker doesn't even make an appearance when I'm on a date or having QT.
AND I'd never forsake your company solely for my mobile device.
AND I'd never forsake your company solely for my mobile device.
AND I keep my phone securely in my bag when in company that has specifically asked in the past that I "put the phone away". It stays away.
...so YES, I realize that my phone usage can be considered rude and that the exceptions I make may not be adequate BUT lately I've been practicing leaving it in my bag when socializing. I've been successful thus far AND I don't like it :p
