Episode “Cell Phone Etiquette”

Guy on phone: One sec. Hey Charlie, hey man what’s up, how is the country club? Yeah I am out here on the east side, yeah just looking at properties. You know you throw up drywall people feel like princes.
Ollie: Mobiles have cause people to loss all sense of courtesy. It is time to establish some essential etiquette. This madness has to stop; you people can hardly walk and chew gum at the same time. Let alone drive and do text. Please stop.
Guy on phone: Did you get that dry cleaning? Phil? Hey Phil hey you driving safe? Hey look out for speed traps and woman cops, right.
Ollie: Never set your mobile on a dining table, having a mobile is no longer impressive to anyone and unless you have a hearing problem. Keep it stowed. If you must take a call, please excuse yourself. Checking your phone constantly in another’s company is rude. And unless you’re speaking into it, take that bloody contraption out of your ear.
Don’t subject innocent bystanders to your conversations, particularly when your victims cannot escape. In situations such as:
No cell phones:
1. In grounded planes.
2. In waiting rooms.
3. In long lines.
4. Public transportation.
5. Museums and libraries.
6. Movie theaters.
Ollie: Be discreet, speaking louder wont help. Unless of course the other person was within ear shout. While these devices are not accessories, unless completely necessary don’t wear any of them, this includes but is not limited to, more than one device on the belt, blue tooth and headset when not in use, proper.
