3G and Lu

When I went to the lu after lunch in the office restroom I happened to hear someone talking behind me. There were the toilets and the sound was coming from there. It appeared that some one was talking over the mobile phone. What a discovery as the other options are obviously he (yes, it was a he as it's a Men's toilet, oh! by the way you don't know me either!) is talking to himself OR someone else is there along with him....Thoughts are always stupid and wild and this is what happens when you are given a nice cozy infrastructure to blog your thoughts.


I was thinking if I were the person at the other end, and I had a idea of this, how I would feel. It would definitely not be a pleasant one. I think doing the lu is more important than (and you don't have a choice here) talking over the mobile. But now that you are comfortably sitting and you dont have anything else to do other than the involuntary acts, it is probably fine to handle a call? How mobiles have brought some one into your supposedly personal place that is as close as this.


I guess the issue is if a call comes when you are in the act, how would you respond? Right now, I can't take your call as Iam busy. Why not do this then?


I only wish with the advent of 3G and video calls, such people are conscious of taking calls at such and such places!
