Texting/Calling

[Covington]

I see people on their phones all the time, every where I go. Whether it's texting or calling, I see it everyday. Most of the time I don't have any minutes on my phone, which means I can't call or text anyone, which is fine with me. I actually don't text much anymore anyway, so having no minutes doesn't bother me, but it would for sure bother other people. A few people have told me they couldn't go anywhere without their phone, nor could they even live to have no minutes, and don't know how I manage to not have minutes on my phone. I don't really like texting anymore, but calling is fine, though I don't talk on the phone much anymore.

Do you use your phone a lot (text/call) intentionally to talk, or do you only use it when you need to?

When I need to and that fairly often but job related. Are you referring to kids or adults. I would guess that most adults, unless they just have nothing but free time (ie. no job, in which case their time should probably be spent looking for one instead of chatting on a phone), use phones for work related conversations. Now kids with phones that chat or text all the time...well that is a different story and I have an opinion on that as well. However I won't get into that lest I might offend someone.
