I guess someone needs to write out a "rules of cell phone use" for those who put their needs before all others and show no respect for others.  |
and thats why the libraries who have this kind of rule DO put up signs.
I'm talking about the ones that dont.
and really isn't this an argument over which person should be inconvenienced? The person who is oversensitive and cannot focus with the slightest normal level of distraction vs the self righteous motormouth with a cell phone?
I don't see the need to accommodate the mentally weak willed in the absense of rules that protect them. If there are signs, or even an "ambiance" that conveys silence, I honor it, however, NOT EVERY LIBRARY has the same vibe to it.
In the OP, if there was a sign posted, then yeah, the woman with the cell phone was a bippy twat and deserved the scolding.
If not, then the OP made somewhat of an over assertion against the "offender"
it's all circumstance
