With cell phones, think before you call

<p>Cell phone manners aren't limited to the person using the cell phone, but the one calling it as well. Some advice from the Dollar Stretcher:</p><p><li>Call a person's cell phone only if it is absolutely necessary. Consider calling a home or business phone and leaving a message.<br/></p><p><li>If you know a person is on the road or busy, wait until you think he might be available.<br/></p><p><li>If you must call the cell, quickly identify yourself and ask if they can talk. If not, ask them to call you later, or for a time when you should call them.<br/></p><p><li>If he says he can talk, but then indicates he is driving or at a business (where the call might disturb others), insist on calling back later.<br/></p><p><li>Keep the conversation short. Remember, not everyone has an inexpensive cell phone plan.<br/></p>
