Today it happened again. As a matter of fact, there are very few meetings I’ve attended in the past few years that it hasn’t happened. Someone’s cell phone went off - and of course it wasn’t a quiet ring tone - it was a loud rock song. Everyone in the meeting lost track of the discussion as - rock song blaring continuously - the woman fumbled in her purse and pulled the cell phone out. I was waiting for her to stand up and start her phone conversation before leaving the room. However, she had the courtesy to turn off the phone - after letting it play music long enough for her to check out who was calling. Sigh! When will people ever learn to turn off their phones or put them on vibrate before going to meetings?
