I walked in the editor’s office and was shocked to discover she had become one of Them. Attached to her ear like some alien wildlife tag was a Bluetooth earpiece for her iPhone.
It’s funny how new technologies keep creeping into the workplace. My Mac Book Pro sports a Bluetooth wireless mouse, digital cameras have options to allow for Wi-Fi downloading and even the latest iPod has options for web browsing while you sip your coffee at Starbucks.
I don’t have an iPod touch, I still download my pictures with a memory card reader and I don’t want to look like I am receiving signals from the alien mothership while I walk around downtown Tracy. Now if they ever invent a wireless coffee maker that allows me to pour my coffee while I am still in bed I’ll be all over that.

To be fair it would be much more conspicuous on you than it is on her.
No offense intended of course.
LOL
I swear folks with the bluetooth ear pieces look like some sort of cyborg. really do they need to wear it ALL the time? in church?
My favorite is women with long hair who talk on their Bluetooths. My best friend constantly looks like a loon chattering to herself since nobody else can see the contraption!
Does a person have to have a bluetooth hooked-up to mumble to themselves? I'm a notorious self-chatterer sans the tooth. So which is wackier? Chirping into an earpiece that actually has someone conversing on the other end or dialoging back and forth with...YOURSELF, for freakin' outloud!
Not to worry, I'm out the door to my therapist. :)
