Introducing Cell Phone Cindy 

Let me start by saying, Cindy in this case can be male or female. My dislike for Cell Phone Cindy is gender neutral. We all know Cell Phone Cindy, the person that interrupts our lunch with her Carrie Underwood ring tone on full Blast, She is the reason you now know how to dance the mambo because of her cell phone ringing in the office so much. You all at one time or another have been Cell Phone Cindy, I know I have!!

Let’s talk about cell phone Etiquette.

When you work in an office, now I’m not talking about Wall Street Stock Exchange here, I’m talking about a quiet office, do you need to have your volume up so you can hear your phone ringing when you are not at your desk. IT’S A CELL PHONE!!!! Pick it up, put it on your belt, or in your pocket, set it to vibrate if it’s that important. Like I want to hear your newly downloaded ever so cool hip hop or country song ring tone that you got screwed paying 3 dollar for.

Yummy, I love food; you’re probably saying what in gods name does that have to do with a cell phone. Well, while I’m enjoying my double cheeseburger and fries at the local Greasy Spoon Cell Phone Cindy is behind me like a stupid monkey, trying to have a conversation on her cell phone. Why she keeps screaming into the phone “CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW” like a damn cell phone commercial is far beyond me. Ready for a lesson in basic technology, CELL PHONES HAVE THIS NEW INVENTION CALLED A MICROPHONE, SO COULD YOU PLEASE KEEP IT DOWN AND LET ME ENJOY MY HEART ATTACK ON A PLATE please J

Now I’m not saying everyone is rude with their cell phones. I just feel that society has accepted the behavior for much to long. I mean I bet if Cell Phone Cindy was sitting in the movie theater watching Bed of Roses or Maid of Honor and someone’s cell busted out with SMACK THAT GET ON THE FLOOR, she would be pissed.

I really think the next time I’m out on the town and I see Cell Phone Cindy, I’m going to grab her cell phone, drop it in her water glass and politely ask her to take a big SIP.
