Cellphone is one of the biggest technological blessings in the field of communication today. Having cell phone makes one feel so much at ease with the feelings that he/she can contact and communicate with their near ones and seek help in the case of emergency.
However, as there are exceptions to every scenario, cell phones tend to become nuisance for the majority of people when an individual misuses it or is unaware of the “basic etiquette”.
Cellphone etiquette comprises of a few simple guidelines of following common courtesy when using a cell phone in public. Cellphone etiquettes are designed to make public places enjoyable for all. Some of the Cellphone etiquettes are as discussed below.
• Keep it short and sweet. When you are in the public places keep your conversation brief. You can always get back to the caller in a private place and when your conversation does not disturb the people around you.
• Refrain from talking on the Cellphone while driving. Multitasking on the road can be dangerous and can lead to accidents.
• Follow common courtesies. Turn off your mobile before interview, presentations, official meetings, funerals, weddings or anyplace or gathering where a silent atmosphere is mandatory.
• In the public places such as restaurants and offices, keep your cell phone in vibration mode or let the call roll over to voice mail box.
• Don’t shout but speak softly on the cell phone. Never use bad language.
• Be patient, cheerful, polite, friendly and enthusiastic over the cell phone.
Cell phone etiquette is essentially about being considerate of others and to remain empathetic and conscious of other’s needs as well as convenience.
