Note to Ipod/MP3 users

When you are wearing your earphones and listening in public continue to act as if you hear everything around you.

Do not close your eyes and begin singing along to the music.

Do not begin bobbing your head, you look ridiculous.

Do not drum on things around you.

You would think that these things would be common sense.

Just trying to help some of you out.

Re: Note to Ipod/MP3 users

For that matter, when you are talking into a bluetooth, don't argue with someone on it while standing in the store. No one can see the bluetooth, but we can see that you are visibly upset or angry and talking to yourself. Be especially careful of this if you talk with your hands while using a bluetooth.

We almost called the little guys in white jackets for someone who did that one night!!

Someone needs to invent some kind of a red flashing light that attaches to these user's heads or faces...somewhere visible.

I work in a real estate office...a LOT of realtors use these...you don't know how many times I've had to ask, 'you talkin' to me?'

I had the reverse happen, I was behind a lady in a line and she was involved in what I assumed was an animated conversation via bluetooth... and then she turned around and I discovered that she was in fact NOT on a bluetooth device....

The clerk and I kept exchanging worried glances until the lady left the store!!

And don't dance or shake body parts, ESPECIALLY if your body part in question is ginormous and encased in skin tight spandex or I will take your picture and post it on "peopleofwalmart.com"

This is true. I see these things everyday on the metro. I wonder what these people are thinking. If it wasn't so obvious I would video these people with my phone so you could see...but then I would be acting like them.

I would be obvious about videoing them and see what their reactions were
