Well I should have made the distinction as well. I still think that the bathroom is for takin care of business and hygeine....the business on the phone can wait, as well that great article in Popular Mechanics that you have wanted to read.
As for talking on the phone while in a public restroom.... the same rules apply, and for even more reason...you now have an audience.
Obviously there are exceptions to every rule, and I am sure there will be times when you will feel compelled to take that call, or finish that call while in the bathroom / restroom. For me though it hasn't happened yet. Others can be put on hold, or called back. Mother nature doesn't take being put on hold too well though...so when she calls I answer, and catch up to the others later.
To each his own though...
Here's a thought? after someone reads in the bathroom, do you sanitize the reading material afterwards? Once used for bathroom reading material, does it ever regain it's status as reading material that lies on the coffee table or elsewhere in the house?
One more thought? Once you finish with the phone you were using in the bathroom....it the phone sanitized afterwards? Or do you just use it again later on, spreading germs even further?
