Mobile Manners

Copyright:http://www.hutch.in/event/mobile_manners.asp

This is issued like a public interest message by Hutch. It applies to all mobile users. A nice initiative from a mobile service provider.

When we talk loudly on the phone or play our favourite ringtones little do we realise that we are in someway disturbing others’ private space. We get away with our behaviour but leave a sour experience for others.

Hutch brings you some tips that will help you become an ideal mobile user. One who’s sensitive to the people around, and uses his mobile phone in the best way possible.

Speak Softly
You don't have to shout to be heard by the person on the other end.

Lights off, mobile off.
At theatres, keep your mobile phone off. And let others enjoy the show as well.

Pray in silent mode.
God may call you when you're in a temple or church. But it's unlikely he'll use a mobile phone.

Don't speak while eating.
At restaurants, enjoy the food and company. Calls can wait.

Anybody can tell a bad tune.
So choose your ringtones wisely. And remember that only you need to hear it, not your neighbour.

A word before any picture.
Ask for permission before you take anyone's picture on your mobile phone.
