Bluetooth
On my way too and from work today I saw something that kind of disturbed me. I saw three different policemen in three different cities with the bluetooth headsets on talking away. I'm really not sure if that is the new "standard", but if it isn't then I'm a bit peeved about it. I can't just randomly talk on the phone whenever I want to whoever I want. I'm paid to do my job and not chit chat on the phone and their job is a hell of a lot more important than mine is.
I hate those things anyhow. Who wants to run around looking like Seven of Nine (and nobody has as good of a body as she did. I wouldn't want to see most of those people wearing the headset in a bodysuit) having people think they are insane? Half the time I can't tell if the person is talking to me, themselves or into the headset.
We lived for thousands of years without having to be in constant contact with every person we know at every instant. For the love of whoever. . .just stop hang up the dang cell phone and live in the moment.

I don't own a cell phone. I don't much like answering the phone here at the house let alone somebody being able to call me when I'm out and about!
I despise those ear pieces. I too think they make people look borg-like. our postal carrier has one, and is always chatting away when she is walking through our 'hood. I'm just too much of an introvert to feel the need to be on the phone 24/7.
Again. . .why is it okay to be babbling on the phone while you work? To make it more enjoyable? Work is SUPPOSED to suck your soul out through your nostrils!
