I recently worked a short graphics gig at an ad agency. They’re doing the pitch rehearsal, I’m pecking away at the laptop. And every now and then, someone’s phone goes off. My natural inclination is that answering a phone while someone is talking is rude. But of course, everybody’s answering their phone. It’s like being in the bird house at the zoo. There’s this odd, high-pitched melody, and then someone’s chattering away in the corner. While working, I get a txt msg, and while reading that, I get a call. It’s too much, it’s all really too much, and I’m the idiot who’s trying to give up coffee.
I must go. My Treo needs to be walked.
