Cell phone etiquette

Yeah when chirp phones were popular..

mother of **** those were the worst. I hayyyyted so much about that era, wholeheartedly.

modern equivalent is folks checking/answering voice DMs with people around...the flying fornication is that?!



#inmyday when you were with people in a room by choice, you chiefly communicated with those present.

if I'm in a place, at a friend's crib, at a restaurant, at a party...then I'm there. I expect the same from others.

the Internet was a triumph for mankind--I'll never type otherwise--but smartphones were a net negative.
 
They brought us closer to those that are far away, but made us farther from the ones that are close to us :{

I have a smartwatch and I'll leave my phone behind sometimes. I told my female friend I was about to go out and I'm leaving my phone and you would've thought I said I'm leaving my shoes. 'what if you wanna take a picture', I'm like, guys don't do that lol she's known for taking selfies/mirror pics whenever she goes out.

The older i get, I feel like I'm beginning less of a people person. Which is a good thing.
 
I’m pretty good at being the moment and not looking at my phone all the time. Now that I think about it, all my friends are the same way. I do have one homeboy that never hangs up the phone. He waits for the other person to hang up. It’s led to some awkward moments while driving.
 
Convenient for you.

You killing the person on the other end lol.

It might just be me.

But I can't stand it.

I haven’t had anybody complain on their end. Only time I wouldn’t do it if I have people in my car. Don’t need everybody listening to my conversation.
 
I cant stand when people play on their phone at restaurants/bars or any social environment ..I try to only be on my phone when I'm by myself..if I'm around other people I like to enjoy the company and live in the moment..if it's true that before you die your life flashes before your eyes a lot of people going to see a ton of scrolling on socail media smh
 
What i find myself guilty of is talking on the phone and surfing, thus not paying full attention. I need to work on that because i can tell when other people do it to me and i don't like it.
 
What about the opposite when you're clearly on your phone doing something then someone comes up to you to talk about their weekend or some ****.

Like 0 prior contact. Old folks at work be doing that ****.
 
the absolute worst.

Not sure if it's been mentioned yet, but I hate when people talk on the phone in front of other people. If I have to absolutely take a call, I'm answering it and asking them to let me call them back in 30 seconds.
