The awful rudeness of mobile exposed

The awful rudeness of mobile exposed

Speaking too loudly is the most irritating mobile habit, says a survey by easyMobile.

Its Modern Mobile Manners study revealed all the usual horrible rudeness that has been accelerated by the mobile age. It also found that nearly two thirds of those researched ignored calls from people they didn’t want to speak to  – and 80 per cent of them lied about it afterwards.

Amazingly, more than three quarters confessed to answering calls while having a meal with friends, even though 60 per cent of the same group thought this was bad manners. Huh?

Overall, three quarters believe technology has caused a decline in good manners.

I could go on, but I’ve just got to take this call….
