I keep mine on my phone. As I use it quite a lot for work I always have it

with me.

Unless I'm working I seldom carry mine with me which always amazes
people.
And this brings up a pet peeve of mine.
One is in a meeting, dining out, etc with others and they put their phone
on the table. Like they are so important. I find that rude.
Unless an important call is expected, keep in your pocket, purse or
holster.

Very rarely forget it like the rest of my stuff (wallet, keys, belt,
etc...)

Unless its part of my routine I sometimes walk off leaving all that on
the table. Always have.
I use a deadbolt on my apartment door so need the key to lock it, but
once in a great while I'll forget my card to get back into the building. Usually I just hang around till someone comes or goes if I can't rouse the neighbour who lives above the door.
One time I left for work and got half way there when I realised I left my teeth at home. Another time I got nearly to the main door and realised I
still had my slippers on rather than shoes.
I think I would sometimes forget my head if it weren't attached. :)

It is irritating. I'll normally silence mine when we eat and in meetings. Unfortunately I am basically "on call" 7 days a week 365 days a year except
for my vacations so I am on occasion one of the rude ones. I try to remember
to just turn the ringer off and will return messages once I am able.

Ha. I've done that once (that I can remember.) Leaving my teeth that is, Overslept and took off out the door. Made it a couple of miles before I
turned around. Funny as hell now but it certainly didn't seem funny at the time.

Sounds like you could use a voice-recorder that either doubles as a keychain, or one that clips onto a keychain. Many designs are out there.

I have enough to carry around as it is. :)
