Many years ago, I wouldn’t use hands free while driving because I feared people would look at me talking and think I was a nut. If I wanted to talk to myself, I just held the phone to my face and nobody knew the difference.

I was in a deli and a guy walked in with hands-free gear. He was in the middle of a sales call of some sort with a customer. Because he was hands-free he was moving about the room and making gestures as if the customer was right there with him. Meanwhile the guy was completely oblivious to the people that were actually there in the deli.

It was a bit surreal and yet something that I find I'm getting used to more and more.

When smaller cellphones first came out there were a lot of people who were able to afford that technology at the time.

I wasn’t particularly clued in at the time and it was beyond the budget. I used to see people in the grocery store holding their right or left ear and talking into the phone.

There for a while I thought those pple were quite odd as I assumed they “talked to themselves”. I would come away in wonderment what these people were saying and why & thouht them a bit off. Oh, and that includes the bluetooth that became quite popular,too.
