The most common unwritten law is not talking loudly in public places. It seems that some people cannot get this. This morning, I was walking around the town proper. A man was talking loudly and tried to investigate what’s his grumbling about. With a reaction of being dismayed, he was talking with his mobile phone and seems doesn’t care with the passers-by.
“Have you ever encountered people who talk so loudly with their mobile phone in public?”
“Do you know any unwritten laws that need to be reminded of?”

So many people are like that, in plaza, inside the public bus, in office.
My unwritten law is to help people in need.

Like buying the local produce vegetable they are selling to us; lending the coconut grinder; giving saltvto neighbors; praying for our neighbors in distress... there are so many ways we can help them in small ways.

Happens all the time and I don´t like to hear their conversations at all.
I feel a bit like an intruder without wanting to be and they should be much more discreet.

Where we were living before one person was very particular in letting us all know about herself almost right underneath our window as the houses only had one floor and with no garden to protect the front part they were able to stand right outside your windows and tell their story.
Said person has a voice that grates on you.
Not sorry to have left that place.

@lovinangelsinstead21 That's what my evil relatives do. They can't wait to be praised by other people. They are really full of themselves.

I agree this doesn't look good to talk loudly in public places. But as far as talking on the phone is concerned we may need to talk loudly many a times because of improper signals or poor audio quality of the phone.
I recall people eating in restaurants with opening their mouths wide reminding cattle or horse while having their feed!

I often notice people in public transport who keep talking loudly on their mobile, oblivion of the fact that they are at a public place. It looks odd to me. I avoid taking calls when travelling in a public transport, until and unless it is very urgent. I would politely tell the caller that I would call you back after sometime.

There are countless unwritten laws that are broken such as throwing garbage on roads.

i think maybe the man cannot hear the caller's voice. even if the phone is on loud speaker. also, maybe the surroundings is noisy.
my mother (+) talked aloud during the wedding of our nephew while the priest was saying his sermon. she cannot listen to her own voice.
