Out of sight, out of mind. I dont trust anyone! my phone is with me 24/7. Even at work if i go to the fax machine i'll unplug it if charging and bring it with me. The fax machine is about 20' away. I think its me being paranoid but still if it makes me feel better knowing no one can take my phone then so be it!
Got a tip for us?

Jungle Gym
Last month during my son's birthday I went up to the top of this monstrous jungle gym. One part of it was this big pasta-roller looking section and you have to squeeze through it. So anyhow, I go through it and go down the slide having a great time. After playing and going through this jungle maze some more, I then sat down with my wife to catch my breath realizing I was packing light. Panic sets in and my heart starts pacing. Headless chicken transformation - "Oh crap, oh crap!" I then for some reason rummage through my wife's purse panicking. No luck. My wife then swears that I better find it cause she's not buying me another one. At this point I come to my senses and reassess the situation. I sprint back up to the top telling everyone that I pass I lost my phone so keep an eye out for it. I get to the top and squeeze through the pasta-roller and to my surprise it's sitting right at the top of the slide. Relief!
I went down that slide like it was my first time again grinning from ear to ear. Aside from the heckling and grief from the wife, that was one scary moment.

Well I've never lost my iPhone because I'm not "slow" in the head. Not saying people that do are slow in the head but makes you wonder. If you have $600 cash in your pocket are you as careless?

I don't even get up from my desk without the phone going in my pocket.
