When someone obtains a new cell phone, it is important not to abuse calling the person. Use the phone number judiciously. Here are some examples of appropriate and inappropriate uses of cell phones:
Don't call for: "I'm going to be right on time for lunch, just as we
planned."
Do call for: "I'm really really late..."
Don't call for: "Hey man, I'm driving behind you and I can't help but
notice you don't have any Pat Buchanan bumper stickers on your truck..."
Do call for: "Rob I'm driving behind you and your two rear wheels just
fell off."
Don't call for: "You know, I was watching 'Seventh Heaven' last night,
and..."
Do call for: "I think I heard your address on my police scanner."
Don't call for: "Hi. I know we're following each other but just wanted
to say hi from the front car!" (We actually got this once. We kid you not.)
Do call for: "Hi. I know we're following each other but I just lost my
brakes!"
Don't call for: "Hi. How can I leave you a text message?"
Do call for: await out of area message. click.
also...
Do call for: Help, I can't pick up the kids tonight!
Don't call for: Help, I can't pick the kids' favorite Pokemons!
and especially...
Don't call for: Whazzuuuuup?
