Because everyone has the freaking internet on their phone these days, we’ve forgotten common decency in how to use them. There is such thing as phone etiquette! And we should all follow such rules. Cartoonist Ted Slampyak created propaganda-style posters that details a few rules on how to use a phone in public.
It’s not that complicated if you think about it but I’m pretty sure I’ll never be able to stop checking my phone in mid conversation and such. I think the one where most of us do a pretty good job at is flipping off the ringer when we’re in a movie. What bugs you the most about people and their phone use?

Don’t tell me what to do, you’re not my mom lol
While I agree with most, I check my phone during long, relaxed conversations and am fine when others do. For me, it’s about judging the tone and length of the conversation.
Let me tell you I think, Oh Hang on my phone is ringing…bear with, bear with ,bear with…………..
such fun
One of my biggest pet peeves is people who are on their mobiles whilst waiting in a queue and when it’s their turn to get served still carry on their phone conversation.
I worked in a restaurant and the number of times customers would be on the phone as they browsed the menu and still on the phone when they gestured they were ready to order. One customer was on his phone for a good 10 minutes after he had been seated and kept gesturing me over. Only when he finished his phone call did I go over.
“Hi, good evening. Are you ready to order?”
“I’VE BEEN READY TO ORDER FOR THE LAST 10 MINUTES!” Came his angry reply
“I’m sorry but you were on the phone and I thought it would be rude to interrupt your important conversation.”
“WE’LL MY PARTNER KNOWS WHAT I WANT. THERE WAS NO NEED FOR YOU TO HAVE KEPT IGNORING US FOR SO LONG.”
“It’s just that some people think it’s rude, obviously you don’t. I’m sorry please accept my apologies for keeping you waiting.”
Then I pulled my mobile out “It’s on vibrate, just need to take this call though. Hi Dave! Yeah just at work. Mmmm, uh huh, yeah cool. No I’m not busy, just serving a table. One second….. What can I get you to drink… No go on. No way, Really! One moment.. So? Would you like a beer, some wine? I thought you said you were ready to order! Anyway where was I? No. You know what it’s like, a customer makes a big deal about being ready. It’s annoying….
“FUCK YOU, CUNT!!” Said the bloke as he got up to storm off in a huff
Haha. Brilliant. And the fact it accumulated in the word cunt just made it!
