Anybody else fearing the dozens of coworkers asking to fondle your new phone on Friday? I know some people like the attention, but I just want to enjoy my phone in peace. I tend to baby my stuff and can't stand grubby hands carelessly fumbling with my pristine iPhone.

I already have a feeling that by the end of the day Friday, my phone is going to be tainted with stupid office photos, random outgoing calls and smudges from greasy faces.

I feel like calling in sick...

That's what happens when you flaunt your phone around work Shikaka. See you in the office.
 
Thankfully so many people in my office had the new iPhone, it's just another phone. iPhones are pretty standard where I am from and I can see our company buying the sales team the Plus before long to save costs on forking out for phones and iPads. :)
 
A lot of my coworkers at my job wanted to see my 6+. It was the same thing last year when I got the gold 5S. Heck, my gold 5s was the official demo phone for best buy mobile (at my store) b/c that was the phone all the customers wanted to see. We had the silver on display but everybody wanted to see what the gold one looked like. And this year I have the 6+ and a lot customers are wanting to check that out. I don't mind showing it to them, whilst I hold it of course (call it paranoid if you want, but I don't put anything past anyone) What I've noticed is a lot and I mean ALOT of customers that come into my store want the 6+
 
Ok so here's what happened at iPhone 6+'s first day at work...

I managed to keep the phone in my pocket for the first half of the day. Things were pretty quite until the office fanboy felt the need to follow me around, announcing to everyone that I got a new phone. Out of courtesy I had to do the mandatory show-and-tell sessions each time fanboy played town crier.

Because there's been so much hype about the size of the iPhone 6+, everyone felt the need to take out their Samsung's and older iPhones and place them on top my 6+ for comparison. It wouldn't have been so bad except for the fact that I'm still waiting for my screen protector to come in the mail.

It was a long hellish day of person after person slapping and grinding their dirty phones up against my naked screen. I couldn't even bring myself to check for scratches on my way home. I can only imagine my poor screen resembling something like one of Jam Master Jay's turntables after a RUN DMC concert.

I dread what I'll see when the sun comes up tomorrow.
 
Well I told you how to handle it on page one. You didn't follow my advice so youll get no sympathy from me.
