Any views ,that you would like to discuss/share??

I was at the hairdressers this morning,
i saw a woman txting ,in an almost horizontal position while
the lady was washing her hair.

At weddings, funerals in the church ,phones go off a lot as well.
I was at a funeral recently, in the funeral parlor, it was the Priests phone that went off, he answered it, but didn't turn it off, and it rang again, to me that is just simply disrespectful.

I think there is a lot of bad manners and disrespect ,when it comes to phones,
When should they definitely be OFFdoh

A good rule of thumb would be:
Would it be rude to take out a book and start reading it right now?
Yes? Then stop effing texting and life your life - also show some respect for the person right in front of you, rather than hoping for someone better on your phone.

When people are at a bank counter/shop till/bus etc.
Anywhere where there is a person waiting to serve them, and they are on the phone instead of giving the staff member the respect and attention they deserve .
