Basic Cell Phone Etiquette
Summary:
While we all think we're using our cell phones considerately, it's easy to slip up and break the rules of basic cell phone etiquette. Understanding these guidelines can be challenging, especially if we're unsure of what they are.
Article Body:
When we step out with our cell phones, many of us assume we’re already practicing good etiquette. However, distractions often lead us to overlook the essential rules of using our phones considerately in public. This is especially true when we're not fully aware of these rules.
One glaring example is talking on the phone in places that demand quiet, like libraries, courtrooms, and upscale restaurants. Despite the obvious need for silence, some people still think they’re exceptions to this rule.
Another issue is how cell phones demand our attention, interrupting us wherever we are. Whether sharing a moment with a loved one or in a business meeting, a ringing phone can pull us away. There are few social missteps as noticeable as prioritizing a call over someone who is physically present.
Thankfully, cell phones come with voicemail, offering us the option to let messages be recorded when we’re occupied. It means we don’t have to answer every call immediately and can return calls when convenient.
Most of us know better than to answer our phones during inappropriate times, such as while using the restroom. So, why not rely on voicemail when engaged in activities that require our focus and attention?
The main misunderstanding in cell phone etiquette seems to be that our phones should not undervalue the presence of others. Whether chatting loudly in a restaurant or letting a call interrupt personal moments, our phones shouldn't disrupt the respect owed to others.
Cell phones are undeniably useful, but we should make better use of their silent and off settings. In most situations, checking caller ID?"especially to ensure it’s not an emergency?"should suffice. Otherwise, knowing when to turn them off is key to better cell phone etiquette.
