There are many Mobile Phone Personalities...Which one are you?

1.) Spindle Head - The head turner looks as though his head is on a spindle. Constantly looking around. Not sure what he�s looking for, but probably wants to see how many people are watching him. �Hey, look! I have a cell phone. I�m unique.� He doesn�t realize most everyone has a phone now and no one is interested in his.

2.) Shouter - This poor soul thinks everyone is hearing challenged. His voice projects three times the normal amount needed. The shouter doesn�t realize that his phone already amplifies his voice�so no need to shout.

3.) Secret Talker - The good news is he talks quietly, but he covers the receiver and it looks like he�s delivering information for the CIA.

4.) Corporate Cliche Meister - This person uses buzzwords & cliches to impress those around him. �Well, tell Bill to keep me in the loop. We need to run this concept up the flagpole to see if anyone salutes it. The entire project represents a paradigm shift into the B2B space. This would really connect the dots and help build synergies for the stockholders. Hope we don�t get any pushback.�

5.) Useless Call Maker - A phone freak. Hardly ever off the cell phone making useless calls�one after the other. Usually on an airplane making astute comments like, �Hi, we haven�t left yet. Ok, Bye.� Or �Hi, we just landed. Ok, see you.� Duh.

6.) Crazy Talker - Well�it looks like he�s crazy. This is the walker using hands free. You see and hear him walking and talking loudly, head bobbing up and down, but there�s no one around. So naturally you either think he�s talking to you (uninvited) or you think he�s talking to himself.

7.) I Don�t CARE Where I Am or Who You Are�I Have a Phone Call to Make or Take - Makes and takes any and all calls anywhere he pleases declaring, �This land is MY land.� Funeral? Restaurant? At a play or recital? As it rings, he quickly (and insincerely) says, �Sorry about that.�

8.) Stalker - This speed dialer is directed only to YOUR cell phone. He calls you a lot just to talk. Problem is�he has the time� you don�t. (Hmmm, how do I get an unlisted cell phone number?)

9.) �My Ringtone is Better Than Your Ringtone� - Download heaven. This user has gone to great lengths to get a ringtone that is unique. They let it ring longer than normal, so you can hear this special ditty!

10.) Generic Cell Phone Ringers - One phone rings�10 people check their cell phones. (Is that mine??)

11.) Cell Phone Driver - Pick one�not both. Drive or talk. You cannot do two things well at once. (OK, use hands free.)

12.) Right Hand/Left Ear - REALLY looks uncomfortable & weird.

13.) Considerate Cell Phone User - This RARE person has a high regard for others and their personal space. When he makes or takes a phone call, he removes himself from whatever area he�s in and takes or makes the call in a private area so as not to disturb anyone.

I'm point 13.

Most of the time my phone is on silent so I don't disturb others, when I eat (restaurant or home) I don't pick up the phone when it rings (vibrate), I call them back after and things like that.

I really hate to hear those very loud 4 tones and awfull polyphonic ringtones in a calm restaurant having a great dinner, it stress me out.

Id say a mixture, i would say i dont speak loud and i dont speak on the phone when people are near by, but that is becasue i do not wish other peoplle to hear my conversation, not because i dont want to annoy them.

id say a mixture between #s 11 & 13.

#11: im not into using handsfree headsets while making calls. mostly use it in listening to mp3s.

#13: dont want to disturb other people w/ my call & also for them not to hear my conversation.
