So let's see again :D
I received many business cards from people I met in my life. Sometimes I check and select them, which one I may need in the future. But now I am thinking about:
Do the people really give it to me, because they want me to call them??? Or is it only a courtesy? Is it only a habit?
what do you think?
(If it is not correct I will reastart again LOL)

That is true, but those people have forgotten about you, probably.

Yes, the sad fact of the matter is I do keep them, even if they are years old, I am a collector and don't like to throw stuff away because I might need it at a later date, it doesn't take up room, I put them in a wallet and I know where they are in the future if I should need them at all.

I don't keep any, I just copy information from business card to my computer and note book. People are giving away business cards, because it is easy way to exchange phone numbers.

Yesterday I received one from a repairer. My washing machine went to wrong and I had to call somebody. I hope I will never have to call him again to fix my machine.

That is cool!
But do you give it to everybody, or just to those whose name you know at least?

I think people give business cards to us hoping that maybe us or someone we know will need their services one day and call them.
I don't keep all the business cards I receive. Sometimes I go through all my stuff in my purse and I throw most of the cards except the ones I really need.
