Let's say your budget was limited enough that you had to give up entertainment ~ but you're still looking for employment. That cellphone gives you 24/7 access to employers, and them to you!

Not having the internet (other than that WalMart email link) is something anyone cold deal with for a good long while.

I have a cell phone that only cost $10 a month (no frills, unlimited calls) so I have that covered. Anyone can get the same deal, there is no reason to have an expensive cell phone.

Next, I am retired, not really looking for a job.

Last, I keep my cell phone turned off unless I want to make a call.

But like I said, this is just me, others have different priorities.

Some employers now require you to apply online. And you can find all sorts of jobs on one website. I don’t see how people live without the internet. If I had to, I could, but I sue wouldn’t want to.

Actually, I was in that boat a good long while. Let’s see. Phone got chopped in August. When I finally got hired, I was hired by a company who advertised on the internet and hired through email.

I still haven’t bothered to restore phone service. It’s just not worth the bother.
