Re:cell phones

Best example of how not to get hired (happened here in my office):

A guy came in for an interview. Looked pretty promising on paper, sounded good during the preliminary phone interview.

Came in for his interview...got a call on a cell phone....and took the call. A long call.

End of interview.

To this day I don't own a cellphone. I had one very briefly a few years back but decided when I was out and about I didn't want to be reached. The damn thing just meant I would be sure to run by the store for *one* item anytime I was anywhere with the car. :p

i HAD to get one, because my job required it... for my own safety actually. :eek:

Haha, I used to do that too, always with a smile. How feking rude can you be to talk on your phone while people are trying to help YOU.

i was shopping at Michaels, and the lady behind me was *grrrr* talking loud and on and on, i dunno how the person on the other side could ever answer. but, his name was Jim. so i turned to her and said "tell Jim I said hi" and she looked at me.... "Do you know Jim?" well, i was such a bitch. i said "i feel like i do with you talking so loud!" she quickly hung up. LOL

I had to carry a pager once for a job. Most irritating thing in the world. Cell phones were not so common then so I could be way out somewhere, get a page and have to run in to find a phone. Grrrr never again.

At least your company is looking out for you. :) If you are ever in trouble I have a feeling that cell phone will be put to good use. As a suposatory for the assailant.

My Cell Phone stays in my car. Very few have the number and know to use it only in an emergency. Except for one friend. She insists on calling it no matter how many times I tell her to use the house phone, she sends me text messages regardless of the fact I refuse to use text messaging and never respond....... :rolleyes:

Got a worse one - a guy came in for an interview for a high level professional job. He apparently had his wife with him, and he left her down in the lobby of the building. not a big deal - there were some interesting shops, a nice restaurant, book/newpaper stand, etc. After about a half hour, she got bored. Then she got mad. She came upstairs and demanded to know what was taking so long and asked that the receptionist break into the interview to tell him to hurry the heck up.

Guess who didn't get the job. I would have divorced her on the spot.
