Sorry they can’t hear you, they’ve got YouTube on
It’s kinda mad how socially acceptable people think it is. And all ages too. Had some auld wan in a cafe the other day just watching her Facebook videos or whatever. Heard it all.
I’d never even dream of playing anything out loud in public on my phone.
The evening shift supervisor at my last job always used to watch tiktoks about cleaning hacks full volume in the break room. Last thing I wanted to be dealing with at 11pm while I was trying to drink my tea
It’s not always easy. But if it’s safe to do so we need to call people out on this to their face. People keep doing this because they never get any pushback.
I was in a doctor’s waiting room this week with my 4yo and I gave her my phone to play that Khan academy kids app (good app for parents who like their kids and society and stuff). The app has music on and so I asked her to turn it down because there were people around and it wasn’t fair for them to have to hear it – she agrees and turns it down and two women in the room smile at me/her – cause she’s sick and cute AF when she’s sick.
In walks a 60yo woman who takes out her phone and starts watching tiktoks with the volume up. Those crappy AI audio celebrity gossip level trash. The two women are throwing her filthies the entire time and myself incl.
Honestly, I’m pissed at myself. I’ve spoken up on the train a few times in the morning, calling folks out for listening to stuff on their phone and I should have called out that selfish auld bint. She should absolutely know better.
Yeah, I don’t think anyone listening to their phone on speaker is reading a newspaper today.
People face timing and walking around, shouting for everyone to hear is as bad
Everyone seems to have ear buds nowadays. This article might be a bit late…
Every time this comes up as a topic I think of this.

As long as mobile phones have had speakers this has been a thing. It’s irritating then and it’s irritating now.
I kinda want to make a mock giant phone and walk through a train doing a Trigger Happy TV type thing.
HELLO? HELLO? NO! I’M ON A TRAIN! I SAID I’M ON A TRAIN!
