What I find some level of amusing is those who get wrote up and fired for excessive cell phone use at work, and then have the audacity to bawl about it on FB or alike. As if the employer is in the wrong for terminating them.

I would bet that at least once per week there is an establishment I go into where the worker is on their cell phone. It could be a gas station, restraunant, grocery or mall store. You walk up to the counter to check out, or ask a question, and they are annoyed like you are taking up their precise time.

I am honestly glad to see some of them fired, and getting suspended for that shit. I wish they could find a way to do something about those I pass who are driving with one knee, in the fast/passing lane, texting on the highway. That would be sweet justice if they hit them with $1500.00 fines, and confiscated their $750.00 phones.
