1. Do not walk and text. The people behind you are likely to step on your heels or flat out run you over.
2. Do not walk up to the counter at a store on your cell phone. It is just plain rude.
3. Do not keep your cell phone on vibrate in a quiet setting. Vibrate does not mean silent, we all know what the brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr means.
4. Do not take a call when you are in the middle of a conversation with someone. You might as well just tell them that they are not worth your time.
5. Do not send a text message when you are in the middle of a conversation with someone. Again, have some courtesy.
6. Do not whisper on your cell phone about someone or something that is within 5 feet of you. THEY CAN HEAR YOU.
7. Do not answer your cell phone on at work. If it is important enough to discuss at work, chances are the person has your work number. Better yet, turn it off! You are supposed to be working!
8. Do not shop and talk on your cell phone. You may think that you are acting no differently, but you are standing in the way of other people while you mosey up and down the isles.
9. Do not choose a new ringtone in public. No one else needs to hear you go through every single sound in your phone while you decide which best illustrates your mood at the moment.
10. Do not use a ringtone that has obscenities in it. Does a child really need to hear that array of four-letter words?

I think #2 and #5 get on my nerves the most. Perhaps there should be cell phone etiquette signs posted around neighborhoods and in public places.
