Our first topic is about something many of us would rather live without, but double back home to get if we leave them behind. Mobile phones.

We'd like to know your thoughts on mobiles phones and their usage. Things like when you should or shouldn't use them, what time is too late to call someone and when is it appropriate or inappropriate to text or call.

i always try to practice mobile phone etiquette but sometimes i forget or am unaware of the rudeness of my mobile phone. for example today when my phone rang in the library as i had forgotten to put it on silent. i quickly rejected the call rather than answer it as i had already disturbed enough people. as mentioned earlier, i work in a cafe and i hate it when someone begins to tell me their order in between talking to someone else on their phone. surely their friend could wait, or i could make more use serving someone else until they are finished.
i also leave my phone on all night as i hate to miss out on late night messages that some of my unconventional friends send me. admittedly i can fall asleep very easily though.
