In any case, I always make a point to get back to the original call as soon as possible. I'd only ditch them for another call if it was really important or I just don't like them anyway.

I recently ranted on my blog about people using cell phones while driving. I'm sure they are taking more than one call while driving if they have call waiting. I can't tell you how many times a traffic light has turned green and the idiot in front of me, yakkin on the phone, hasn't bothered to notice that light is green. I can't tell you how many times I've been cut off by people who don't bother to look before switching lanes because they are yakkin on the cell. Sheesh.
