Who would have thought cell phone ettiquiette would ever become such an issue?
Occasionally I receive a cell phone call at home when I am cooking dinner or in the car with my mom, and I can understand if her cell phone happened to ring and she answered it. But what I can't understand is why she would choose to call someone on her cell phone while I'm on my cell phone trying to hear them when she is right next to me. I think it is rude. She could wait for a few minutes for me to finish my call, or if we are at home, she could talk in a different room. I will often go to a different room to make a call, but sometimes I am in the middle of doing something important and she comes and talks right next to me.
She is normally a very polite and considerate person but I don't think she ever thought about this being rude. Do you think its rude? How can I let her know that I think this is rude without hurting her feelings?
