One in two workers use their smartphones in the bathroom

A recent survey conducted by CareerBuilder on 5,200 mobile workers shows that over 57% of them use their smartphones in the bathroom. That’s just plain gross. Imagine this, one in two of your friendly co-workers have contaminated their smartphones while using them in the toilet. Not trying to be a hypocrite here, I admit that I DO use my phone in the bathroom, but it just doesn’t feel right when I know that others do that as well.

Other findings from this fun little survey reveals that more than half of the workers do the following while using their smartphones: while eating, while on vacation, check in bed, check in the bathroom and check while driving. The last factoid is especially disconcerting, here’s a word of advice: don’t let your smartphones get you into an accident!
