Cell phone manners aren't limited to the person using the cell phone, but the one calling it as well. Some advice from the Dollar Stretcher newsletter (www.stretcher.com):
• Call a person's cell phone only if it is absolutely necessary (or if the cell phone is the person's only phone). Consider calling a home or business phone and leaving a message.
• If you know a person is on the road or busy, wait until you think he might be more available.
• If you must call the cell, quickly identify yourself and ask if they can talk. If not, ask them to call you later, or for a time when you should call them.
• If he says he can talk, but then indicates he is driving or at a business (where the call might disturb others), insist on calling back later.
• Keep the conversation short. Remember, not everyone has an inexpensive cell phone plan.
