I was sitting in the public bus. I was on the way to the market to buy some meat for the dogs when I heard someone talking loudly. I turned around to have a look at the speaker and noticed a young man. He had stuffed one finger in his right ear. The other ear had a mobile phone stuck to it. And he was talking really loudly.

How do you react when you see or hear people talk loudly in their mobile phones in public places? Do you try to overhear? Does it anger you, amuse you, or upset you? I always try to overhear. I hear some great things sometimes.

Cheers and happy mylotting

Hi!

I felt annoyed! Talking to someone else on the phone is a personal matter. None should hear what is the conversation about. At the same time the person on the phone should also think of what would be the reactions of the people around. How if there are some people who are conducting a meeting so he will be disturbing them.

Be blessed

I really hate when people do that. I mean dang I don't want any one listening in to my private conversations and I sure as heck don't want to hear a private convo as well and when I used to waitress there was nothing more frustrating than to go up to a table to take an order and be shooed away by someone on the phone. I would then walk away and not go back till they had hung up the phone. If you want to talk on your phone do it privately so that every one around you does not become privy to the problem your great aunt Ida was experiencing.

It is a boring behavior in a public place. No one will like it.Nearly all of people there will notice he or she. I offten hear that in bus and other public place. I hate that behavior.I hope they can give up the bad habit. They can talking loudly in their mobile phones in his house.

I am unable to decide who looks more lunatic among the ones who holler in their cell phones and those who walk with their head phones talking very loud making a pathetic picture.

Maybe he didn't realize that his voice was already that loud. Sometimes, when you are trying to hear and be heard thru a mobile phone, you have the tendency to speak as loud as you can so that the person on the other line can hear you. There are those who intentionally speak loudly as if boasting that they have a mobile phone. I usually just ignore them, I don't mind as long as I am not talking to someone else and he is causing me not to hear the other person

Hi friends
Yeah sometimes its really irritating.It is really very disturbing.Some people give the showoff about their cellphones.
But sometimes we do often speak loudly,due to over crowd and when it is not audible.But some people speak so loudly that,other people go mad.Some times its realy very funny,when we overhear someone.

it depends really..
if it is really so important, and we are on board a moving train/bus, i guess i wouldnt mind so much if that person decides to continue with his call..
but if it is not urgent.. i would rather have that person end the call, and return the call whenever he is in more 'private' setting..
because i do not like to hear people's conversation.. even if they themselves dont others listening in..

it depends where I am but I hate it when I am at a restourant, or doctors, or waiting to pay, places where you cant help but hear it and cant move my self (not that I should). I dont care what they are talking about if its really anoying I give them a look.

Hi positiveminded1977

First I want to thank you for starting a discussion on such an interesting topic.You are asking what I feel right?I get mad at them.These persons are like freaks.Well if you do not have a good connection,then you can talk loud in public,that is understandable.But,that is not always the case.These people just do not know how to keep their personal things to themselves only and I really dislike it.

Nothing quite irks me like having someone inconsiderate talking full blast into his mobile phone. It disturbs other passengers and sometimes, all passengers want is just some rest after a long day. Also, by talking so loudly, you are not giving respect to whoever you are talking to, as he or she may not want the conversation to be overheard by other people. I get rather frustrated by such acts of inconsideration.
