Okay, every day there seems to be something that is the BIG irritation of the day, so I’m guessing that I’m not alone in this one. I work in a good size office and it seems like every few minutes there’s a cell phone ringing. And everyone thinks it’s so cute to have their ‘special’ little ringtone blasting away. Hasn’t anyone figured out that there’s a volume control on their phone, or better yet use the vibration setting. They are obviously oblivious to the fact that they are annoying their co-workers, who are actually trying to do their job instead of taking personal calls on company time. It’s just amazing to me that more employers don’t require cell phones to be shut off during work hours. Then there’s the people who set their phone on their desk and leave for hours while the phone plays a short ringtone few seconds indicating that it has a message. Talk about inconsiderate! I’d love to take a hammer to their cell phone and let them return to a pile of little pieces on their desk. Okay, I feel better now … think I’ll go download a new ringtone for my phone now and turn the volume way up … lol
