Some people call cell phone calls "progress"????, In some cases, I call it "rudeness"....99.9 percent of the time the call can wait!

The driver for the offer was presented as a way for couples to "re-connect" by having undisturbed conversations while they are out together. I would love to see it become a "trend" everywhere.
Oh and by the way, I have texting completely shut off on my cell phone (can't get them or send them). If someone has to tell me something, they can call and if I am available, and it is appropriate, I will answer my phone and respond-otherwise the message can wait until I can get to it safely and without being rude. I lived without cell phones and text messages for over 30 years, and can't see why I absolutely have to always be on the phone or respond to messages as they are received.
