I guess I haven't entered the cellphone age. I don't even own one. My wife has one, but technically it belongs to her parents. She has had it for a couple of years because it's one of those family plans.
Right now I'm applying for a new job and each application REQUIRES that you put down your home number and cell phone number. They look at me dumbfounded when I say I don't own a cellphone, similar to the reaction you would give your 20 year old friend when he tells you he is still a virgin. They tell me that I have to put one down, so I put hers down even though we never use it except maybe when we go on long drives.
What pisses me off is she will turn the phone on and find a week old message from a company wanting me to return their call even though I clearly stated on the original message I left to call me on my home phone and left my home phone number on the message. It's frustrating that people will no longer call your home phone first anymore. Everyone just assumes that you have a cellphone with you at all times and they will call you on that first. Pretty soon home phones will be obsolete.
GOD DAMN IT, CALL ME ON MY HOME PHONE FIRST!!!
