Default Do you text/phone someone when they're literally in the same house as you?

My step sister does this to her Mum and it's beyond stupid. Just sheer laziness.

What about you?

Personally, I find it really ignorant. Especially when there's other people in the house.

Rarely. I have done, I will do again. Shouting down the stairs is so impractical.

No, I'm always glad to put my phone on silent when home and only check it now and then.
Would never use it to phone/text in the same house nor would I respond to same either.

If I get in late at night I like to shut the door loudly enough that she'll hear it and then message from the hall like "Running ten mins late, shouldn't be long!" for giggles.

Other than that nah. Unless it's to share a link to something funny I've seen online whilst sat on the toilet or something.

No, that's quite funny though

I do find myself sometimes texting to my coworkers when we're in the same office - but it's either because it's easy to share technical issues or just private chat with my team leader. Still feels funny though
