There is a lesson here Tony... don't be that guy who wears his cell phone on his belt.

Haha. I guess. Although to nitpick technically it wasn't on my belt. It was just clipped to the outside of the pocket. I was carrying all kinds of crap for the kids (they end up getting lots of stuff at these things, crayons, notepads, pens, etc) and was tired of the feeling of overfull pockets .... *sigh*

You could hear a cheerful little ring tone coming out from under the floor when you call the phone.

I can't wait to explain this one to my IT department ...

I'll keep texting ya Tony....maybe it will irritate them enough to do some turret maintenance

They probably already have the cell phone out and are using it to send dirty sexting to the Iranian embassy and other "enemy" states.

Now try explaining those to your IT guys

Nah!... it would have to be something out of the norm on the phone to cause any real suspicion.

Throughout the day, I will often peak in here to see what's going on, just for a bit of a mental break from work. Today I just need to vent a bit. I had the most obnoxious person stop in unannounced to take a strip off me for following my client's instructions. I respectfully asked him to leave and walked away. And I was having a great Monday as well....ugh.
