Yesterday I was at a supermarket where my cashier used her smartphone every "spare" second while working.
While swiping food's barcodes she was glancing at her phone and tapping and swiping away at her phone's screen.
After telling me my total she turned her back on me and stared at her phone while I got my cash ready ... AND kept her back to me for around 20 seconds after I held my cash out.
I had to say, "Hello!"
This morning while walking the dogs a car was stopped at a stop sign and the driver was pressing buttons swiping on his smartphone.
The car behind him waited patiently for around 30 seconds before tapping their horn.
These people don't appear too smart.
Have you noticed inappropriate smartphone use is growing?
OTOH, do you think of yourself as a multi-tasking smartphone user?
