DESCRIPTION:

Founded in 2002 by etiquette expert Jacqueline Whitmore, National Cell Phone Courtesy Month occurs each year in July.

In a 2010 poll, 40% of Americans stated they “often experience generally rude or disrespectful behavior, cursing, near-cursing or people interrupting conversations to use e-mail or cell phones.”

Cell phone rudeness is on the rise. This is a month to focus on what you can do. The following are some basic guidelines:

1) If live people are with you, pay attention to them. The calls and text can wait.

2) Don’t advertise your business. Excuse yourself from a gathering if you need to speak on the phone.

3) If you know taking the call will be emotional, reject it until you’re in a quiet place without an audience.

4) Keep your phone on vibrate when in public.

5) Watch your voice volume. If you have to yell to be heard, hang up and resume when you are at a quieter place.

6) Excuse yourself ahead of time by alerting your companions if you’re expecting a call and will need to leave the group to take it.

7) Send a text message when you want to send a quick message, but not as a replacement for a conversation.

8) Use earphones or a headset to avoid distracting others in public areas whilst listening to streaming media.

9) Never text and drive.

10) Avoid texting and social media postings if you’ve been drinking.
