Miscellaneously Yours

I’ve blogged in the past about washing your hands after using the bathroom. However, there is another piece of bathroom etiquette that has been getting on my nerves as well: cell phones. Seriously, do you really need to be on the phone in the bathroom? Do you really think the person on the other end really wants to hear the noises that happen in there? Ew! There are so many reasons not to do this, yet so many versions of the bathroom phoner. I’ve personally gone into a public restroom and encountered the loud cell phone yeller, which, in my opinion, is worse than encountering them in a restaurant. There’s also the person talking on the phone that makes it seem like they’re talking to you, which is just plain uncomfortable. Not to mention this makes the phone horribly germy, even if you wash your hands. Honestly, if the call is that important, wait to use the restroom. If you get a call while you’re in there, call them back! Please, for the sake of the rest of our sanity!
