I'm a cellphone freak

and here are my five commandments of having/using cellphone.

1. Thou shalt attempt to pickup thy cellphone every time it rings/vibrates.
The reason for having a cellphone is... so that you can contact people and vice versa. If you're not picking up normal calls(non prank/advert/telemarketing) then why do you want a cellphone?

2. Thou shalt not set thy cell to vibrate permanently.
Why would you want to set your cellphone to vibrate permanently? Are you in a meeting 24/7 or do you wish people not to disturb you. If you wish people to not disturb you, turn it off or do not get a cellphone, then nobody, NOBODY can disturb you.

3. Thou shalt not use cellphone set to vibrate as a excuse for not answering.
Millions and millions of people use 'my cellphone was set to vibrate' as an excuse to not pick up their calls/reply their sms, time to nip this in the butt.

When you set your cell to vibrate you want to know that someone is calling but do not want the ring tone to disturb everyone. This action tells us that you have the intention to pickup the call. You should turn off your cell when you have no intention of picking up.

4. Thou shalt buy thy cellphone in view of using it 24/7.
Buy a cellphone but want to turn it off x% of the time? Might as well use your house phone/pay phone/office phone/borrow your friend's cell and save on your monthly bills.

5. Thou shalt accept this 5 commandments.
Cellphones are invented for everybody's convenience, not just yours. By not picking up thy cell, you are robbing others their right to convenience(contacting you).

Don't be selfish, pick up the call and make the world a better place. 99% of the time, Communication leads to good things.
