Reply #114: I hate them.

[Patiod]

I hate how unclear the reception is, I hate how rude people are when they use them (get off the goddamned phone and pay for your purchases, or get the hell out of line)

But I have to have the damned thing for when I travel -- clients think because THEY'RE reachable at all times, that *I* have to reachable at all times. "I can't have a teleconference right now, Chris, I'm on the plane and they're closing the doors and are going to make us put our phones away, sorry.")

They also come in handy when I get lost outside a strange city, far from any chance of finding an (ever rarer) pay phone.

But day to day -- rarely use mine.
