No fist fight friend !

It was a beautiful, warm and sunny afternoon in Yureka- one of the big mobile show rooms in the city.Customer care assistants were chattering to each other as no customer was present there.The showroom showcases all kinds of mobile phones ranging from the oldest not-so-smart phones to the latest iphone model.

All of a sudden one phone from the smart phones side started laughing at the ordinary phones. It was highly irritating to the ordinary phones group and one ordinary phone asked “Why do you laugh at us?”

“haha……. Poor you. You are not much capable like us. You can neither act smartly nor attractive like us. I wonder why they are still keeping you here. No one is going to buy you” replied the smart phone arrogantly.

The normal phone smiled and started speaking.

“Dear friend!  You are absolutely right that you are much more capable than us. But I’m really sorry to see that you are not aware of the harm that you are doing to the mankind.”

“Harm?! What do you mean? We help them to save their time and help them to make their tasks easy. They can check their emails while travelling; they can attend conference calls while they are on a vacation far away from office or home; they can play games while waiting in a queue, just to give a few” answered the smart phone.

Ordinary phone again smiled and continued speaking.

“Yes. I agree that you do help them in so many ways. But you have failed to see the other side of those helps.

Check the emails while traveling saves their precious time. But it prevents them from interacting with fellow human beings may be friends or strangers. People go to parties/get together events but what they do there is a taking selfies/bunch of photos and upload them to the Facebook. Are they really being there fully at the party? The same explanation goes for attending conference calls during a vacation and others. Quality time has become just quantity time after you entered in to their lives.

Do you know the greatest scientist Albert Einstein? What he feared has become true now.

“I fear the day that the technology will surpass our human interactions. The world will have a generation of idiots.” "

Smart phone: "I got your point."

Ordinary phone: Let me explain few other reasons.

1. Distraction - Since you have loads of functions with in you, the users/students who are enthusiastic about your functions spend half of their time with them which obviously an obstacle for them to do the regular studies, research and homework. Using you while driving is the most dangerous thing they do.
2. Grudges – if they drop us accidentally we just standup and work for them happily as before no matter how many times they do it. That is not the case for you. If they drop you, you will start holding grudges and stop some or all of your functions working and the hospitalization charges for you will be too high sometimes even higher than your original cost.
3. False prestige – You said you are capable of doing loads of things. But do you know how many of them get the maximum output from you? I’m quite sure that some people who have you even do not know what you are capable of. It does not matter how much you have. The only thing that matters is how much is used out of it.
4. Life time (battery) - We are hard workers. We do not get tired very easily. If they give us a single meal, we will survive with it for two days. But they have to feed you every 5 hours otherwise you will be dead.
5. Security risk- Some people even do business or online banking through you, so a thief could acquire proprietary information or financial data. Along with physically stealing the device, people can also infect you with malware or try to access its data through a wireless network. Even we have contact information inside us, but they won’t have to worry about someone accessing a larger virtual paper trail.

Smart phone started feeling guilty and sigh.

“I apologize for what I said to you. I understand that I failed to see the other side of it. Hope you will forgive me and accept me as your friend.”

Ordinary phone smiled and shook hands with the smart phone.

I think smart phone should work on improving its debating skill.:P
