My first cell phone plan was pay-per-use, and it was nice since I really didn't use a cell phone often: just for emergencies, arranging meetings, and stuff. That phone died this summer, and I was out to get something a little more featureful. This now involved me to get a regular plan, but my usage is even less now that I'm working and not in school anymore... and I'm paying more. ;_;
I absolutely hate it when answering the cell phone just stops "everything." Some examples...
Going through the turnstyle of, e.g. a subway, passing the gate, AND THEN STOPPING TO CHECK YOUR PHONE, ruining the flow of human traffic. People do this on stairs, automatic doors, and everywhere else I am. (Side note: and about 100% of the time these people are black girls. :/)
And as a somewhat minor example, you're conversing at a restaurant with friends. One's cell phone rings, and pretty much all conversation at the table stops until the end of the call... kinda just bugs me.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
