LOL! Don't they see you sending yourself an email?
Now that is funny

Nothing. Just holding it gives off that "busy" look.
Usually if I have my head down, attention focused on the bb people leave me alone. Not always the case.. but usually :)
I usually start browsing the web or message someone. Works every time

I don't usually use it to avoid people, but I find when I'm in an elevator with a coworker I barely know, I can just take it out of my purse and type a little message to someone, or pretend to, so I don't have to make small talk. It looks like "work stuff" so they won't make small talk either.
Works like a charm.
that's my favorite technique!
I definitely did that the other night! But the funny thing was....They pulled out their BB too!!
I hate small talk...
I must be in the minority, but I go out of my way to make small talk because I know others hate it.
Nice technique from BEXX.
I just ignore people naturally, did need the berry. Though I liked ecooper11's solution.
i just stare at it because people are annoying. lol, i ask ruby should i talk to them and she kindly says no. (crazy, *walks to the rehab corner*)
I play music. Preferably screamo, at an intolerable volume. "Excuse me!" And then I proceed to "answer" the phone.
EDIT: Hello, fellow South Carolinian /\ /\
hello there :)
I just look at it like I'm reading an important message. Plus it give me a chance to show it off and look like a busy professional :)
Wouldn't showing off lead to small talk?
LMAO! I like that one
No because I'm too "busy" conducting business on it LOL
Haha thanks.
That is what works for me. I start moving my fingers really fast with a disgusted look on my face, so they think Im doin sumthin extra important.
Lmao, I read *important* emails from up to 2 days ago. If that doesn't appear to be helping I will sigh and call Mom. She plays along rather well.

nope it works like magic! I just type in the heading "hi" and sent it to "me" in my address book (I put that in my address book for that reason). With weeks of doing that, I can send those messages incredibly fast:) Works every time! Most of the time, people bug me.:)
The mom technique isn't a bad idea.

I don't ever use my BB to avoid people. If I don't want to be or can't be bothered, I just say so.
