Rude cell phone users.

Is it me, or did the advent of the cell phone create a whole new level of rudeness???
I think the thing that burns my ass the most, is people talking on the phone while they are at a checkout counter. Man, that irks me. Especially the ones using a head set. I just think that is so obnoxious. Not to mention the ones in the restaraunts sittin at the table yaking loudly while you are trying to enjoy your meal.
My wifes a restaurant manager, one night I was sittin at the bar waitin for her , a woman behind me at a table was on her phone, practically screaming into it . Finally after about 10 mins I turned around and told her "do us all a favor , please take your F***ing phone outside and give everyone thats trying to enjoy a nice dinner , a break " She looked at me like I had 2 heads. My wife practically hid under a table. She was like "I cant believe you just did that"!! Meanwhile a few people at tables gave a small round of applause. I told my wife somebody in this place had to do something. Man she was pissed at me. Was I wrong??Ok mabye I could have been a little more diplomatic about it . But Ive just about had enough of all the cell phone rudeness.

BTW, the woman In the restaurant got a free drink on the house to apologise for the customer that was " RUDE " to her. ( needless to say I was slightly P.O.d at my wife for that.)
