How did you ever manage in business before mobile phones were invented,
"dear"..?
How did you make a living before 'busses were invented?
There was a time when you could say "I'm not ruining my front door by
cutting out a letter-box!". When you could say "I refuse to install
a 'phone! If they want me, let them write!". When not having an
answering machine, a fax, email were possible options. When you
could say "I'm traveling today. I'll be out of touch for several
hours!".
None of these are currently possible. Tough, ain't it?
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..?
A bad analogy, and you know it.
