Yes dear. Some of us are on that train not for the pure
pleasure of travel, but because we're rushing around
trying to make a living. Customers need attention NOW.
Or they go elsewhere. It's a privilege to have
employment now. Let us get on with it.

How did you ever manage in business before mobile phones were invented,
"dear"..?

Incidentally, my living is driving buses, I don't see why I should spend
my entire working day subjected to other people's noisy conversations. Or
shall I come and park myself in your office all day and make phone
calls..?
