Whenever Minutes

When is it OK to sit on a toilet and use your cell phone? NEVER! That’s why they should be called When NEVER minutes. Not whenever minutes.

Here is an excerpt from and email I received today. I can’t believe this sort of thing happens. I mean, people in California barely even smoke for Christ’s sake, but they do this????

Yuck.

Who do you think he was talking to? A colleague? Was he making a sale? Maybe he was talking to his wife or mother or something. Just so you know. It is never OK to go to the bathroom, sit on a toilet, and talk to me. I never want to be in one hand while your other is wiping your butt. NEVER.

Do you think that people need a reminder as you walk into the public bathrooms: For the consideration of others, please turn off your cell phones. Maybe all that’s missing is that polite reminder. Yuck. I still think it’s disgusting.
