If you must keep your cell phone on at work, put it on vibrate. |

Thanks to an officemate, I now have a Ringtone Earworm.... :grr: :argh:
I'm coming out of my cage And I've been doing just fine Gotta gotta be down Because I want it all It started out with a kiss How did it end up like this It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss Now I'm falling asleep And she's calling a cab While he's having a smoke And she's taking a drag Now they're going to bed And my stomach is sick And it's all in my head But she's touching his-chest Now, he takes off her dress Now, letting me go
And I just can't look its killing me And taking control Jealousy, turning saints into the sea Swimming through sick lullabies Choking on your alibis But it's just the price I pay Destiny is calling me Open up my eager eyes 'Cause I'm Mr Brightside

9. Put the phone in an empty mug on your desk...you'll hear it vibrate. |
|
I should add -- my employer does not require us to use cell phones for any purpose.

13. If you keep the volume reasonable, it's fine. |
|
It's impossible to turn our work ringers up as loud as a cell ringer will go. People here seem to think if their cell isn't set to maximum volume, they might miss a call (which, in the case of this person, is usually her mother, boyfriend or dinner companion for the evening).

Who's that gigolo on the street? With his hands in his pockets and his crocodile feet Hanging off the curb, looking all disturbed At the boys from home. They all came running They were making noise, manhandling toys That's the girls on the block with the nasty curls Wearing padded bras sucking beers through straws Dropping down their drawers, where did you get yours? Gigolo, Huh, sukka? Gigolo. Gigolo, Huh, sukka?
Who's looking good today? Who's looking good in every way? No style rookie You better watch don't mess with me!
No moneyman can win my love It's sweetness that I'm thinking of! We always hang in a Buffalo Stance We do the dive every time we dance I'll give you love baby not romance I'll make a move nothing left to chance So don't you get fresh with me!
Get funky. Yeah Timmy. Tell it like it is. Check out this DJ.
So you say you wanted money but you know it's never funny When your shoes worn through and there's a rumble in your tummy But you had to have style get a gold tooth smile Put a girl on the corner so you can make a pile Committed a crime and went inside It was coming your way but you had to survive When you lost your babe, you lost the race Now you're looking at me to take her place.
Who's looking good today? Who's looking good in every way? No style rookie You better watch don't mess with me
Smokin.' Not cokin.' Get funky sax Looking good, hanging with the wild bunch Looking good in a Buffalo Stance Looking good when it comes to the crunch Looking good's a state of mind State of mind don't look behind you State of mind or you'll be dead State of mind may I remind you Bomb the Bass...rock this place! What is he like? What's he like anway? Yo' man what do you expect the guy's a gigolo man You know I mean?
No moneyman can win my love It's sweetness that I'm thinking of We always hang in a Buffalo Stance We do the dive every time we dance I'll give you love baby not romance I'll make a move nothing left to chance So don't you get fresh with me
No moneyman can win my love It's sweetness that I'm thinking of We always hang in a Buffalo Stance We do the dive every time we dance I'll give you love baby not romance I'll make a move nothing left to chance So don't you get fresh with me
Wind on my face, sound in my ears Water from my eyes, and you on my mind As I sink, diving down deep...deeper into your soul.
No moneyman can win my love It's sweetness that I'm thinking of We always hang in a Buffalo Stance We do the dive every time we dance I'll give you love baby not romance I'll make a move nothing left to chance So don't you get fresh with me

18. I think ALL Cellphones |
|
should be VIBRATE ONLY!
I do NOT want to hear your stupid "songs" or silly ringtones. I don't CARE if you get a call. Keep it personal and private and don't announce it to the world.
