Old-fashioned girl that I am, I still have a landline, though it rarely rings - and when it does, especially without warning, there's rarely anything good on the other end.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I try to use the landline whenever I can. We cannot do without the mobile phones, but we don't need to use them indiscriminately. We are overusing it; we are misusing it.
A landline is an anchor - busy signals, long distance bills, missed connections and all.
Having a conversation on a landline is more intimate than talking to someone in person. Your voices are so clear and close - you're in each other's heads.
I've suffered from all of the hang-ups known, and none is as bad as the telephone.
Not to be arrogant, but I have a lot of hits, so my phone stay ringing, but it's consistent.
I stay away from the telephone if at all possible.
If I play hard to get, soon the phone stops ringing altogether.
I can't sit around and wait for the telephone to ring.
You have to love the doing of what you're doing and not wait for the phone to ring.
What I have now are good problems of trying to decide and what I really want to do is good work next. My phone's ringing a lot more and I've got nine lines so when it doesn't ring, it's very frustrating.
