  - I would be if I could be. -- nm - JaxSean May 31, 12:37
The ringer is almost always on unless in a quiet enviroment. I answer when it rings. -- nm - lileve May 31, 12:25
which phone? - psilotum May 31, 12:24
Less likely. Unless I hear a ring tone of a person I REALLY want to talk to -- nm - flavorize May 31, 12:23
I aim to have my ringer off and just use vibrate. I hate ringtones in meetings, on buses, etc -- nm - ty97 May 31, 12:17 7
- I kind of wish I had funnier ringtones so they could occasionally break the tension in meetings. - TFox May 31, 12:19
- people are very bus-polite here. it's so rare to see people on the phone on the bus. silence is the norm. -- nm - amanda jones May 31, 12:19 5
  - I bus commute with a lot of students. Silence would be a non-starter. -- nm - con_carne May 31, 12:27
  - it's funny, it depends on the bus. if you take the earlier commuter-heavy busses, people are great. - TFox May 31, 12:21 2
    - if/when they're even in english. it's about 50/50 on my buses - moles May 31, 12:24 1
      - "EL CRACKO! QUE!" -- nm - TFox May 31, 12:24
  - ha. ha ha. - moles May 31, 12:20
ringer is on. I hardly ever answer my phone though. - decline May 31, 12:15 2
- really me as well. it's *never* good news. my friends will actually text me to say "I'm calling you now" so I don't get worried. -- nm - amanda jones May 31, 12:16 1
  - my girlfriend and mother are about the only 2 people I pick up when they call. -- nm - decline May 31, 12:29
ringer on. nobody calls me but my dad and occasionally the office -- nm - moles May 31, 12:14 2
- and sometimes patryk and me to ask for legal advice!! -- nm - amanda jones May 31, 12:15 1
  - "just plead guilty now" -- nm - moles May 31, 12:16
usually on, always answer it cause it's likely a customer -- nm - zeitgeist May 31, 12:14
My phone is almost always ringer-off. Right now it's off because when it's on, WWF gets bloopy. -- nm - Beryllium May 31, 12:13
it's almost always on vibrate, except for days I work from home. -- nm - Don Homer May 31, 12:12
Yes it's on. how could it be less likely? -- nm - loosilu May 31, 12:11 3
- my phone annoys me when it rings. I refuse to reward it for bothering me by answering. -- nm - amanda jones May 31, 12:15 2
  - but if the ringer isn't on, how would you be able to answer? -- nm - loosilu May 31, 12:16 1
    - vibrate -- nm - Don Homer May 31, 12:17
