How embarrassment

[red750]

Since I bought my new Samsung phone for under $250 when new iphones cost $1,000+ (some costing over $2000), I often don't carry it with me, it's a bit big and heavy compared to my old iphone. I rarely get calls, and when I do it's usually my daughter wanting me to pick up something at the shops.

 

However, yesterday I went to a funeral, and forgot to put it on "Do not disturb." 

 

Wouldn't you know, halfway through the eulogy, the bloody thing goes off loud enough to almost waken the dead. I pulled it out of my pocket and the caller ID on the lock screen said "Possible Fraud". I shut it off as quick as I could.

Could have been worse. Severe flatulence for example.

I remember when the wife and I went to England, leaving my son at home to fend for himself. Typical smartarsed teenager, he had put a ringtone on my wife's phone that was the sound of police sirens. We were sitting in a cafe in the village in Yorkshire where they filmed the TV show Heartbeat when he phoned us. The place was filled with the sound of sirens and everyone was looking about for the emergency vehicle. Of course, it was the son. It was mid-morning in England, but getting on for dinner time in Sydney. The stupid bugger rang to ask his Mum how to cook some dish he wanted for dinner.
