Blackberry's let you work harder

Users of blackberry devices end up working on average TEN more days a year. I am feeling even more smug than usual that I refuse to own one.

My phone, a dirty old piece of crap, has categories so I can sort people into work, friends etc. and screen calls based on that. If I dont want to talk work, I dont answer when they call :p

DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself.

 

Important: as the following sentence contains many naughty words I warn you not to read it under any circumstances; botty, knickers, wee, erogenous zone, psychiatrist, clitoris, stockings, bosom, poetry reading, dentist, fellatio and the department of agriculture.

My phone is not even *that* high tech. It can store peoples names and phone numbers. If I don't recognise the name/number, I don't answer the phone. Nice and simple :)

I have a Blackberry. Its a waste of life. I can't wait to get rid of it. The keyboard is good, yes, but the web browser blows, and the apps are decidedly low-tech.

In 7th grade, I teach the students how Chuck Norris took down the Roman Empire, so it is good that you are starting early on this curriculum.

My boss has an annoying expectance of being able to text us and getting a timely reply any day of the week. I hate texting, I'm not 15, I don't need or want to learn how to type using the number keypad.

 

I'm the exact opposite. I love texting. People don't preamble or waste time because typing is awkward. They simply say where you have to be or what you have to do. Nor do they have space to micromanage. Brilliant.
