Cell Phones at the store

Unless you are waiting for a new kidney, there is no reason to be talking on your cell while I am checking out your groceries.

You look really pretentious.

You sound very self centered.

No one wants to hear what you think about that skank who is dating your girlfriend's former boyfriend, but now we all know how you would have done if that b**** had tried it with your boyfriend.

While you were on your phone the checker may have forgotten to ask if you had your savings card and just possibly added a fifty cent donation to Easter Seals to your bill.

You are being very rude.

You think you look busy and important. You actually look like a tool. Really. Everyone in the line thinks you are a giant tool for talking on your cell phone in the grocery line. At least hang up while you are being checked out.

Don't bother with mouthing "Thank you" to your checker as you leave, phone still clamped tightly to your ear. I have already moved on to the next customer, who will most likely say "Hello" to me. I will give them extra good service, too.

Also don't bother telling the person on the line, " I am being so rude to my checker right now by talking on the phone." People try that line all the time, but they never hang up. Now you sound like a hypocritical tool.

Come on! It is maybe 4 minutes out of your life that you are not yakking about your life on the phone. No one is that interested in you. Hang up! Unless it is the hospital calling about that kidney. In which case- Congratulations! Now get your butt to the doctor!
