[www.keralites.net] 10 Indian Phone Habits We Absolutely Hate

 

Indians have taken to mobile phones like a fish to water. And while you'll find people sporting two and even three phones on them, mobile etiquette is something which still remains elusive. While some phone habits drive you up the wall, others simply make you groan and turn on your ignore mode. But, hey, if you do any of these, you know it's time to change!

1. Playing Candy-Crush everywhere.

Over crowded trains, buses, or walking on the footpath, Candy Crush is the Indian's best friend, not dog.
 

2. Playing Bollywood music in crowded places.

It's really, really irritating to come across someone blaring 'Chikni Chameli' at 7 AM in the bus or train at full volume. Heard of headphones?
 

3. Taking selfies.

There's a time and place for everything. And a crowded street is the place for accidents. NOT selfies.
 

4. Chatting while walking.

While it is ok to talk on the phone while walking, chatting or WhatsApping makes you slow and susceptible to people bumps.
 

5. Garish ringtones.

While your ringtone might be your favourite bhajan or ringtone from the 70s, you're not the only one hearing it. Keep some good or soothing music as your ringtone so you don't disturb all those around you.
 

6. Screaming when there's no network.

Hello? Hello? HELLO?! H.E.L.L.O?!
 

7. Talking while in the loo.

This is the grossest thing you can do. EVER.
 

8. Talking loudly when there's a long-distance call.

Classics Are Dead
Your voice won't carry to the UK or the USA or Australia. It only carries to your next-door neighbour. And they don't want to hear any of it.
 

9. Asking 'who's this?'

One Knight Stands
This is one weird habit we can't seem to shake off. When you get a call from an unknown number, instead of the person identifying himself/herself, how many times have they asked you, "Aap kaun? Kiska number hai?" Extremely ridiculous!
 

10. Charger woes.

Indians have somehow not adapted to the portable charger or carrying their charging cords when at friends' places or in office. And the old phone habit of having a different charger for each phone is so ingrained in us that the minute someone asks us for a charger, we first ask "Kaunsa?" or which brand. Gahh!

 
Dear All friends,
> It was a great 2014 of our togetherness on facebook /whatsapp/emails, overall we had lot of fun by exchanging thoughts/pictures/chat/views. I sincerly thank you all for being part of my happiness.

[www.keralites.net] Thank God for the journey.

 

 
 
TH
IS IS  BEAUTIFUL
;
 I AM HONOURED TO HAVE RECEIVED IT
FROM A FRIEND
.
I'm
APPROPRIATING THIS, and
sending it on to you
, for Emulation is the Best form of Appreciation
!

At birth we boarded the train and met our parents, and we believe they will always travel on our side. However, at some station our parents will step down from the train, leaving us on this journey alone. 

 

As time goes by, other people will board the train; and they will be  significant i.e. our siblings, friends, children, and even the love of your life.

Many will step down and leave a permanent vacuum.

Others will go so unnoticed that we don't realize they vacated their seats.

This train ride will be full of joy, sorrow, fantasy, expectations, hellos, goodbyes, and farewells. Success consists of having a good relationship with all passengers requiring that we give the best of ourselves.
 
The mystery to everyone is: We do not know at which station we ourselves will step down. So, we must live in the best way, love, forgive, and offer the best of who we are.

It is important to do this because when the time comes for us to step down and leave our seat empty we should leave behind beautiful memories for those who will continue to travel on the train of life.

 

I wish you a joyful journey on the train of life. Reap success and give lots of love. More importantly, thank God for the journey.
 
Lastly, I thank you for being one of the passengers on my train. 

 

I wish you a Very Healthy, Happy, Prosperous and Productive New Year; and look anticipatingly to continuing 
our Journey together.
 
With Warm Regards, 
 
murli
