Recently I was standing in a ridiculously long line, waiting to vote. I was using my phone to get some work done while I was waiting in the line and a very old woman behind me in line was mouthing off to another person waiting, "Can you believe these people using their phones all the time? I mean, get a life." She made sure to say it so loud that all 300+ people in line (including me) could hear it.
I just chose to ignore her while I continued working. Being able to work in a line while waiting to vote allows me to spend more time away from the office and with my kids. The elderly lady behind me lives in a very small world and doesn't understand people have different circumstances than her.
Reading this submission makes me put 37signals into the same category as the rude old lady that was standing behind me in line.
