What do you think about people who talk extremely loud on cellphone?

Hi Daliaj, I also commute and encounters number of loud users of cellphone. but i think it's the crowd or noise around that prompted them to be loud. or maybe they have hearing problems and that they need to speak louder to hear not only the person on the other line but their voice too. the bad thing is...we know what's going on in the conversation.

I know everyone has a cell phone. But one would think with using them in public places as often as many do we wouldn't want the whole world knowing our business anymore than anyone elses. Some conversations are probably left better at home or in a car or somewhere you can be more open and not disturb people or give them more information than necessary.

Hi dalia, In fact I said to my colleague several times, ‘you no need to use the phone, the other party can simply hear your voice without the phone that much loud you are talking’. Now he is avoiding the phone which kept near to me in office and using the other extension. Means some people are like that, there is no difference whether they are using a mobile phone or land phone, whether they are in public place or in offices, it becomes a habit of them. According to my colleague, he can’t hear the other person so he speaks through the phone loudly.

I really could not understand why people speak so loud as if he or she is addressing a distant person. Phone's microphone is designed to be sensitive, even a whisper can be heard loud and clear on the other end. It is really so irritating, I think he needs to be told so he/she will understand.

I think they are seeking attention and loves annoying others and also they think that their situation matters and so important that they talk loudly around others.Maybe they feel proud that way.

I agree that some are quite irritating, but with some, when I'm on my mischievous mood and especially when I'm wearing dark glasses and trying or pretending to be sleeping, I like to eavesdrop on their conversation on the rebound. Once there was a lady who was talking loudly on her phone in the train and she was sitting behind me. I was listening to their conversation, then suddenly, I think her phone lost signal or something, so the conversation was cut abruptly leaving her a bit confused. My lips were terribly tempted to smile, but I had to force myself not to do so. Lol! Another thought... these kind of people make me feel embarrass when I answer my phone on the train, because I sometimes think I might be noisy like them, therefore, I try to keep my voice as low as I can, to the dismay of the person I'm talking to.

They can be irritating. The worst for me is the people on their blue tooths. You don't know if they are talking to you or someone else. That has happened a few times to me. Next time your in a small space with someone being loud on their cell phone. Pull yours out if you have one and pretend to have a conversation about the loud person next to you. That will surely get the persons attention and he/she will lower their voice. If you don't have one, every few moments turn towards the person as if your really listening to the persons conversation. That should give your point across that he/she is irritating.

It annoys me especially when I'm on a bus. Don't get me wrong I use my mobile too, although I don't shout. It's extremely annoying be able to hear someone Else's conversation and it really makes me wonder why people don't listen to themselves. I understand noise plays apart, I understand that but I dislike the people who shout when there's silence prior to them answering their mobile. Major problem where I live. I've seen people get aggressive with people for doing it and one time this guy threw this young teens phone out the window. :/

Hello daliaj! Its just that they dont have manners & common sense.I too have seen a lot of people talking loudly even in hospitals , offices & the like.I dont know when they are going to learn.

I think people who are loud while talking on a cellphone are rude and inconsiderate. I also believe they are looking for attention and are probably very ignorant people who only care about themselves. They don't care about other peoples feelings. I also think they believe they are more important then others. It can be very agravating expecially sitting right next to them. I would have had to get up and get as far away from him as possible.

It drives me absolutely insane when there is someone that is talking too loud on their cellular phone. However, even worse than that, in my opinion is when there are people that have the volume up on their phone so high that you are able to hear both sides of the conversation. It drives me insane when you are able to hear other people's dirty laundry. I don't like having that happen at all. I think that there should be rules about talking too loud on your phone in public.

when someone people talk extremely loud in public place I feel very bad it's like embarrassing and really get irritated.

You are correct. I think that man is used that habit. but do you think this trait can be correctable. I don't think. If any adult used to a habit, it will be difficult to correct.

very disturbing indeed hear people talking loudly on the phone, if I'm there near the person being called and loud, I choose to change seats. so I do not hear so hard. I'm sure people would feel, if I bothered. I experienced anything like you. that time I was in the waiting room at a pharmacy. I immediately moved my seat, when he received a phone call with a loud voice. and the man was conscious when he was disturbing me.

Hi, daliaj. I think that they have no idea how loud that their voice sounds. And, they have a habit of talking loud. That is something that are they are just used to doing. My husband tends to talk loud when he is on the cell phone at home, and I will have to tell him to lower his voice.. Maybe it could be their phone or they just talk very loudly. But, I think that if someone is in public, it is best to talk while they are away from others and out of earshot. It is rude if they don't stop talking on their cell phone.

Hi daliaj. People who talk loud on phones are not rude, they are just dumb. What do I think about people who do so ? I am not sure I could repeat it here on mylot This is just one of the reasons why I think, "All cell phones are evil"

I think its very rude. In fact, I think talking on a cell phone in public at all is rude. Working in a retail store, I have so many people talk to me, but tell me to hold on while they talk on their cell phone too.

obviously, they are loud persons. and there are a lot of things about persons, who are loud, that are rather grey. as you already said, people who talk loud in public are rude, they are. also, as that, they have no respect for other people. how much more can you expect them to respect themselves? ah, i just avoid them. i don't even tolerate loud people around me.

Hello daliaj, we are of the same boat; I think people who's talking very loud over the phone are boastful, egoistic, and only wanted attention. They maybe are showy. They think having a cellphone is cool so they develop that attitude of being a show off. In other words very proud. They are not familiar what is the word "etiquette" means.

You can see that the guy is: Uneducated Has bad manners Selfish I often encounter these people in the train. We all glared at him but he would just ignore us. I just don't understand - he's revealing the content of his conversation and he looks like some madman! I would never do that unless I have some mental disorder!
