u turn yours off. i dont give a fuck what he did. im not being punished for his shit  |
Actually I do. When I ride my motorcycle, 75% of driving time, it's in a saddle bag. When I'm in my truck I turn it off and put it on the console. Not being an on call heart surgeon what phone call can't wait until MY CONVENIENCE to call back? The idea of being constantly accessible to everyone, being at everyones beck and call is something I hate and won't do. What is so important you need to be immediately available? Even at home I'll turn the ringer off half the time.
Being a slave to your phone is a recent development. One I don't follow. So yea I pretty much pay attention when I drive.
