In the cinema, right before the start of any movie, there will always be a running of this particular screening which reminds patrons of the cinema to switch their mobile phone to silent mode.
Still, halfway through the show, you can hear ring tones and sms tones....
In the meeting room and lecture halls, the same goes. On the projector screen, will be a powerpoint slide, reminding participants to switch their mobile phone to silent mode.
Still, halfway through the meetings / lectures, there will be ring tones and sms tones, and often, by a cruel twist of fate, they almost only occurs during the most silent segment of meetings / lectures....
So can you tell me ? Whats wrong with these people ?
To me, they are more than inconsiderate.
They are lazy for not acting according to what the reminder had stated.
They are selfish for impeding the learning/advancement of others.
Is this the problem with the society ? or just the invidual? Do ponder.
For now, I urged anyone reading this entry, that the next time the scenarios above happen to you, please, switch your handphones to silent mode, if not for yourself, do it for others....
