Bus Etiquette

I take the bus or metro home from work every day. One thing I make sure not to do when riding is talk on the phone. This is because when using public transportation, like the bus or metro, you are stuck in an enclosed space with little escape. This means that everyone around you has no choice but to listen to your side of the conversation. This is especially annoying when multiple people are on the phone and competing with each other, and therefore louder than your music. So to everyone who rides public transportation, just say no. Tell whoever is on the other end that you will call them back. If it is an emergency, please try to keep it down. I don't want to hear about your legal case or your problems with your girlfriend. All of your fellow riders will thank you and everyone will have a much more enjoyable ride without your commentary.
