We won’t encourage you to stop using your phone, but because it is National Cell Phone Courtesy Month we feel compelled to at least give you a guide to cell phone etiquette 101.

A recent survey conducted by Intel reported that 90% of people are annoyed by cell phone users’ apparent lack of manners but only 38% will actually admit to exhibiting that bad behavior themselves. What topped the list of most annoying behavior? Number one is texting while driving, followed closely by people talking loudly on their mobile phones.

Here are a few tips to help you avoid driving those around you up the wall with your mobile:

1. Don’t let calls interrupt important events, dates, meetings. After all, nothing is more of a turn-off than having your romantic date interrupted by Sir Mix A Lot’s “Baby’s Got Back” ringtone.
2. Don’t get loud/angry with the person you are talking to. It makes everyone around you uncomfortable.
3. Learn to use vibrate. Vibe. Live it, love it.
4. Just because you are on the phone does not mean you need to speak louder. Talk at a normal volume.
5. Don’t text message while driving. It’s just plain stupid.

And last but not least… don’t be this guy with the ringer on at inappropriate times:

The quacking ringtone not only had the room laughing, but it interrupted President Obama’s speech rather abruptly. Thankfully Obama handled the situation with some humor asking “Where do you guys get these ringtones? I’m curious.” The answer of course: Flycell.com. Get yours here!
