A cell phone request

Hearing impairment or not.....WHY can't folks just go inside and have a private conversation plus the added benefit of there being less background noise :H

Some times you have to go outside to get a good signal, you guys know that. One person said he didn't correct some one using a speaker phone. What is there to correct if the person can only hear with the speaker phone. Not everbody is perfect as some think.

I would get off my chair, go over grab their phone, smash it against my pecs and throw it into the woods. Then punch them in the head for making me get up in the first place.

I would think a set of ear buds would solve most hearing related issues. Not raving against the impaired, but it would be a lot better than the speaker on full volume, and you can turn those up as much as you want.

The bluetooth enabled devices mentioned above sound worth checking into.

I can almost deal with the darn smart phone walkin talkin yelling idiot people at a CG.

It's the grocery store ones that I just want to grab their darn phone an smash it and then run it over with my cart ten times:....

when I hear and see them taking repeated pictures of a can of beans and saying is it this the one you want?, click pic, or is it this one click pic, should I buy this one click pic or this one click pic. Oh wait this one is cheaper click picture of the price on the shelf and on and on and on and on. :R

Our last camping trip our neighbor came over and said something about my wife talking on her phone and he could hear it. My wife is hard of hearing and had the speaker on and was not talking loud. I told him I would make sure she went some where else to check on her parents once a day as soon as he turned down his out door tv so I did not have to hear it. Half the cg could hear it!
Some folks have to complain about something I guess!

I want to comment on the earbuds. They do not work well at all, I have them but ceased using them. As far as going inside your coach to talk, normally that is where I do all my phone talk, however the guy right next to me did also and I could still hear every word he spoke. I never raised hell with him, due primarily to the fact that he probably had the same hearing loss I have. I found that trying to get folks calling me to use text worked best for me, but did not set well with the caller. There are so many things that we allow to upset us. Diesel running at 6:00am, dogs doing their thing on your site, on and on. Most folks with severe hearing impediments will discourage any phone call short of an emergency.

I see plenty of younger people that do that and for what reason I do not understand.
Some of it must be behavior learned from those stupid Nextel devices that made the most awful squeaking and garbled sounds. The people using them thought it made them look important to have all of that racket blaring from the speaker interrupting everyone that was unfortunate enough to be within earshot of them.
I for one was glad to see the use of those decline, the devices and the users were a pain.

Wow- I can't believe the things that bother some people. Wow.

The earbuds that come with your phone are ****. There are better alternatives - many have volume control, noise cancellation, microphones, and blue tooth.
