How Not To Boost Your Cell Signal

Practically everybody in this country has a cellular phone. A huge percentage just use them for text messaging. A huge percentage of that huge percentage use it to find casual sex on TV text chats. I’m not guilty of that but I’m guilty of this.

A new study commissioned by the indoor cellphone booster firm Wi-Ex, and conducted by Harris Interactive, 62 percent of cell phone owners who make calls at home have done something special to improve signal reception in an attempt to make or receive a cell phone call indoors including going outside (46%), standing by a window (42%) or using their landline instead (30%).

People do strange things just to increase their cell signals. Me, I wave around my mobile or shake it hoping that the bars would go up. The study conducted by Wi-Ex revealed these amusing list of what other people have done to boost their signals.
