Where have our mobile manners gone?

Where have our mobile manners gone?

There is a growing problem in society. Once upon a time in the distant past (about 2 or 3 years ago) it was considered rude to do things such as text during class, while driving, or even during sex. Unfortunately, our addiction to the little devices in our pockets has made many of us begin to ignore the old cellular taboos that kept us polite, focused, and safer.

To many, it has gotten completely out of hand. To others, it’s just a fact of life, a natural transition to a world where nothing is too sacred to exclude the use of cell phones. There’s a reason why 1 in 5 people have dropped their cell phone in the toilet. An estimate 247.5 million cell phones have been used in the bathroom. Here’s a graphic that goes over the mobile details.
