Cell Phone Etiquette & Public Uses : 

Cell Phone Etiquette & Public Uses By Ebony M. Williams November 30, 2010

What is Cell Phone Etiquette? : 

What is Cell Phone Etiquette? Not using your cell phone while in line placing a take out order. Watching the content of a conversation in public. Keeping your tone at a discrete and respectable level. Not making and receiving phone calls while dining at a restaurant. Not texting or web surfing in the presence of others.

Who are Cell Phone Jammers? : 

Who are Cell Phone Jammers? Cell phone jammers are people who attempt to interrupt the signal of a cell phone making it impossible to receive a signal to make or receive a call. This is encouraged by people to force cell etiquette. However, it is illegal under the Communications Act of 1934 and since it’s a radio communication, its also seen as theft of property since its licensed and/or authorized.

Common Places Where Cell Usage is Inappropriate : 

Common Places Where Cell Usage is Inappropriate The Movies In Church At a Play In a Meeting Standing in line at a bank Placing an order for take out

Vibrate, Silent or Powered Off? : 

Vibrate, Silent or Powered Off? Which is more appropriate to use when the location requires cell phone silence? If there is no need for communication, power the phone completely off or place on silent. If you are awaiting a phone call and need to have an alert when a call is received, place it on vibrate. Therefore, you will still receive your call in a quiet manner.

Texting : 

Texting Texting is also considered to be a part of cell phone etiquette. There is a time and a place for that also. For example, if you are in class or a meeting, wait on a break or when it is over. If it is absolutely necessary, send a short but sweet message “TXT or Call U L8R!

Conclusion : 

Conclusion Using a cell phone doesn’t have to be a bad thing. It just depends on when and how it is used. To keep down irritation and aggravation amongst others in public places, be mindful on how you speak, what you say and the time that you are doing it. If you are at dinner, church, school, etc., try to wait until there is a more appropriate time and place for your conversations and personal expressions. Again, its not what you say but where and how you are saying it.
