My personal phone doesn't even get internet (it's supposed to but the service is so bad it's never worked) and there's no need to check my work bberry 99% of the time since my job is pretty low key adn I'm in the office most of the time. I've been known to go an entire weekend without checking any of my phones once, which has promted my family and friends to start calling/texting my DH when they need to reach me - they don't even try me first! :)</p> <p>At my old job though, I was once 'reprimanded' for not checking my Bberry on my way back from a client meeting. My boss needed something very stupid and nonessential, but he got mad that he had to go for over an hour without hearing back from me. That got me in the habit of checking my bberry more often esp during any downtime like an elevator ride. Once I left that job though, I went right back to my old habits! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-your-iphoneandroidblackberry-when-youre-in-an-elevator#post-56722 Mon, 23 Jan 2012 07:13:15 +0000 sylvie_b 56722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I'm listening to music on my headphones, no. (typical for work morning elevator rides)</p> <p>all other times? Absolutely! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-your-iphoneandroidblackberry-when-youre-in-an-elevator#post-56294 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 16:33:50 +0000 Andrea 56294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: yup, we are well on our way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-your-iphoneandroidblackberry-when-youre-in-an-elevator#post-56291 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 16:28:06 +0000 mrbee 56291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: Haha posting that here is a bit ironic! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-your-iphoneandroidblackberry-when-youre-in-an-elevator#post-56283 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 16:05:14 +0000 Andrea 56283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>totally. pretty soon we're all going to just stop talking all together and just text. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-your-iphoneandroidblackberry-when-youre-in-an-elevator#post-56277 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 15:55:38 +0000 Pepper 56277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually try to check my phone... but the elevators in my office building don't get service. Sometimes I'll type out a text to send once I'm actually off the elevator. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-your-iphoneandroidblackberry-when-youre-in-an-elevator#post-56195 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 11:20:52 +0000 autumnlove 56195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes I do... if I have service and a free hand! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-your-iphoneandroidblackberry-when-youre-in-an-elevator#post-56155 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 09:08:57 +0000 SAHM0811 56155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes I do... Even if there's no service, I can catch up on previously downloaded emails I haven't read yet.</p> <p>I think it depends what kind of elevator you're in and the time of day. If it's in the elevator where my hubby works, most likely people there are checking their phones (work emails, etc), especially on the way into work in the mornings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-your-iphoneandroidblackberry-when-youre-in-an-elevator#post-56135 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 07:39:21 +0000 heffalump 56135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm rarely on an elevator. But no I don't. I'm usually too busy trying to figure out where I'm going. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-your-iphoneandroidblackberry-when-youre-in-an-elevator#post-56107 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 22:20:47 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 56107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not usually. I don't have many opportunities to ride in an elevator and when I do I'm usually not alone so I don't pull out my phone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-your-iphoneandroidblackberry-when-youre-in-an-elevator#post-56104 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 22:15:58 +0000 BSB 56104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends if I get service. If its an elevator that doesn't get service, I don't usually check. Although, I do check my iPhone whenever I get a free second, so I would probably check my phone to see if I did. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-your-iphoneandroidblackberry-when-youre-in-an-elevator#post-56100 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 21:58:45 +0000 mrbee 56100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The other day I was in a crowded elevator, and I looked around and every single other person was checking their smartphone. </p> <p>I think there were around 8 other people on the elevator! Not a single person caught my gaze as I looked around!! They were all surfing the net. I was truly stunned. It was the first time I truly felt like I was living in the 21st century.</p> <p>Do you check your iPhone/Android/Blackberry when you're on the elevator? </p>
