From the simple Nokia 3310 to the iPhone, cell phones are getting more and more complicated and complex as each new generation of cell phone comes along. With this complexity comes demand, and as each new generation comes along the demand to own these sophisticated trinkets goes up. Along with the simple phone call, almost all modern phones are capable of text messaging, video calls, internet usage, gaming, and of course instant messaging. But with all of these options to stay in touch and communicate with friends, people seem to be spending more and more time on their cell phones. As the number of people owning cell phones goes up each year, the amount of manners associated with owning these desired pieces of technology goes down. Because of this, I am have constructed a list of rules to follow when you own a cell phone.
Rule 1: cell phones should be turned off during work and class as to avoid distraction. Also, while at work or school you full attention should be devoted to the task at hand, and by leaving your cell phones on, you’re not only distracting yourself, but you are also disturbing others.
Rule 2: cell phones should be turned off while driving. When using cell phone while you are driving, not only are you splitting your attention to the road in half, but you are also becoming a threat to both you and all of the other drivers on the road. When behind the wheel your undivided attention should be on the road because what conversation could be important enough to risk your life for?
Rule 3: while in public, you should not play music out loud from your phone. It is inconsiderate to those around you who do not share the same taste in music as you, as they might find the music that you are playing to be annoying.
Rule 4: When using your cell phone be mindful of your surroundings. Keeping a civil tone and using an “indoor voice” are some simple things you could do to up hold this rule. Watching your tongue and holding back from cussing and using inappropriate words too accessibly are things you could also do.
Rule 5: Be aware of where you are. Be sure to use the appropriate ringer volume, or to keep your phone on vibrate or silent, as it can be very rude if your cell phone rings when an area is supposed to be silent.
Cell phones have swiftly become a part of average everyday life. Because of this, these rules should be held as a guide line at the least to help maintain a respectful way to go about modern life.
