"Friends Don't Let Friends Dial Drunk"

What do most people do on a Saturday night when they've had one too many? 95% of Virgin Mobile customers reach for their cell phones, according to a recent survey conducted by the phone company's Austrailian branch. Who are the lucky recipients of their sloshed calls? Among those admitting to DUI ("dialing under the influence"), only 19% felt inspired to chat with their current romantic partners - wheresas 30% reported calling their exes. The largest group of respondants (36% of the total) rang up "anyone and everyone" - a category that presumably includes bosses and parents.

and it's for this reason you'll never find my boss's home phone number on my speed dial.
