Loutish
cell use is out of control. Mobile phones now ring at weddings
and funerals, job interviews and surgical procedures. No event,
not even a teary movie, is immune.
During Broadway shows, it's not uncommon to hear the unmistakable
ring tones of, say, the William Tell Overture going off. It's
gotten so bad that the New York City Council has passed a law
against using cell phones during live performances and in museums.
Violators risk a $50 fine.
Everywhere I go, from avenues to airports, from elevators to
the bank, from conference rooms to restaurants, mobile addicts
are blurting out steady streams of shocking and confidential
revelations. Who needs to know all the intimate and creepy things
we're now forced to overhear? |

Boorish
cell use isn't limited to social venues. It's corrupting the
most basic of business courtesies. Every executive has a "Can
you beat this?" cell story. But Mary Westheimer of Bookzone.com
offers one totally over the top: At a recent Publishers Marketing
Association conference, a panel member was presenting his part
of the event. "His cell phone rang and he stopped his presentation
and answered his phone!"
"People are defining new rules and new behavior for what's
personal and what's private," says Robbie Blinkoff, principal
anthropologist at Context-Based Research Group, a Baltimore
marketer that relies on ethnographic fieldwork for insights
into consumer behavior. The
results of Context's just-completed, six-country field study
of wireless habits found that the vast majority of mobile
users frown on loud or private calls in public. But that same
majority indulges in such calls themselves.
There's your disconnect. Everyone's convinced he's the polite
one. It's other people who are rude. "Technological change
leads to social change, but there's always a lag," Blinkoff
says. |

Cell phones aren't the issue

Let me be clear: I think mobile phones rank up there with
the invention of the steam engine and ice cream. Technology
and its myriad benefits are not the issue. People are.
Currently, there are 120 million cell phone users in the United
States, up from only 46 million five years ago. The decibel
level is rising. So are transgressions and intrusions - and
car accidents.
In 2002, about 41 state governments were considering proposals
to restrict or ban the use of cell phones while driving, up
from 27 in 2000, reports the National Council of State Legislatures.
Unnecessary mobile talk is increasingly fatal - even when carried
on hands-free, according to the latest study.
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
And
user attitudes are turning outlandish. One recent phone survey
conducted by Wirthlin Worldwide for LetsTalk, a San Francisco
wireless service provider, found that since 2000 the number
of Americans willing to use their phones in public places has
dropped significantly. Maybe this mirrors Context's findings:
"Do as I say, not as I do."
Still, among the locations surveyed, including cars, movie theaters,
restaurants, supermarkets, public transportation and classrooms,
every place was rated less acceptable than previously for calls
- except one. The bathroom.
In 2000, a dumbfounding 39% of Americans thought it perfectly
OK to talk on their mobiles while in rest rooms. By 2002, that
acceptance has spiked to nearly half (47%).
"We were surprised," confesses Bret Clement at LetsTalk.
"All we can figure is that more and more people are walking
around with cell phones and are more comfortable about using
them."
My reaction? Don't even ask. Let's just say that I feel bathroom
breaks are meant to be private, and it's not a time when I care
to hear someone else disturb the atmosphere with what she's
going to wear tonight, or how well the business meeting went. |

Technology and manners are compatible. For
example, most Web users are up-to-speed on e-mail etiquette
- even Gen Y teens, the poster kids for electronic culture.
Wireless users must evolve. Sure, there are a handful of folks
who must take calls no matter where, no matter what - say, U.N.
weapons inspectors, heads of state and expectant fathers. But
virtually everyone can either turn on the vibrate option, depend
on voice-mail messages or head for a secluded area before pressing
"send."
If, as anthropologist Blinkoff promises, the mobile lifestyle
is here to stay, along with "a phantom sense of proximity,"
then we must hew to new dos and don'ts. Here's my 10-point plan. |

1. Never take a personal mobile call during
a business meeting. This includes interviews and meetings with
co-workers or subordinates.
2. Maintain at least a 10-foot zone from anyone while talking.
3. Never talk in elevators, libraries, museums, restaurants,
theaters, dentist or doctor waiting rooms, places of worship,
auditoriums or other enclosed public spaces, such as hospital
emergency rooms or buses. And don't have any emotional conversations
in public - ever.
4. Don't use loud and annoying ring tones that destroy concentration
and eardrums. Grow up!
5. Never "multi-task" by making calls while shopping,
banking, waiting in line or conducting other personal business. |

| |

|
| |
Do's |
|
| |
1. Keep all cellular congress brief and to the point.
2. Use an earpiece in high-traffic or noisy locations. That
lets you hear the amplification - how loud you sound at the
other end - so you can modulate your voice. |
