DON’T… engage in a long and noisy conversation with a caller when in a bar or restaurant with a friend, either move yourself away from the situation or send a text
DO… either switch your mobile to silent at a restaurant or hand it to reception and ask them to alert you if you receive an important call
DON’T… have your mobile phone visible on a table in a restaurant or bar, this is bad etiquette and will turn your phone into the modern equivalent of a comfort blanket
DO… place your mobile out of sight, in your handbag, briefcase or pocket. However, it is your responsibility to make sure that you check it regularly in case there is an emergency
DON’T… walk along the road talking loudly on a handsfree phone – it is not only silly and disconcerting, but bad manners
DO… keep your ringtone style and volume at a sensible level – not everyone will necessarily enjoy your selection
DON’T… hold long, thoughtless unnecessary calls at the top of your voice on public transport – very few people are interested in your private life
DO… text friends when they are abroad – in some countries, recipients have to pay towards the call, and texting is a cheap and easy alternative
DON’T… forget your posture. Posture can be affected by leaning the ear towards the shoulder, locking arm and hand in a cradling position to hold the phone…Relax shoulder and hand and keep the head straight.
YOU MUST… switch off your phone at theatres, cinemas, funerals and weddings.
And for anyone about to join the dating game, remember…
DO… text a girl to ask for a date after your first meeting if you are shy (it’s OK)
DO… phone to confirm the details if the date is accepted (don’t forget)
DON’T… send a text if you are running late – CALL!
And Girls….
DO… phone your date and thank him afterwards, (although, if it was just a casual drink you can text him). Either way, it is your prerogative to say thanks!
DON’T….spend the whole date texting or talking on your phone, you might want to look popular but you will turn off your prospective partner
