Ended up in A&E this evening for a couple of x-rays (don't ask :rolleyes: ) and whilst sat there this young bird comes in and sits down.

Next thing i notice she's on her mobile phone (theres notice's everywhere saying to turn them off) - i think about pointing it out but think bettter of it so dont bother. Couple of minutes go by and the receptionist notices and tells her to turn it off. Which she does.

After i've seen (the rather nice
) doctor i'm sat in x-ray next to this bird and her Mum who's just turned up. Well blow me the mother then pulls hers phone out and starts texting away :rolleyes: - the daughter points out that she wasnt pleased with been told to turn her's off, so the mother replies "if anyone says anything to me then i'll tell them where to go .."

Where the hell do these people come from? :mad: Dont they think the warning's apply to them? What makes them think they know better than to not turn their phones off when asked to? :rolleyes: Kinda sumed up the attitude that alot of people have nowa days - and obviously the daughter got hers straight from the mother :rolleyes:

It's an attitude and a culture that has been brewing in this country for a few years now. Some call it chav, which is born from 'have nots' in a world with many material values out of their reach. Its an attitude of the taxpayer owing them a living. What will it be like in 10 yrs time when the chavs of today are claiming benefit and having 5 kids to get their benefits. Something will snap very soon, and has already started with cutting incapacity benefit claimants by 1 million.

I go to the wards at work all the time when I'm on-call to fetch samples. And I go in with my mobile phone (as I need it for work) and no-one ever says anything to me :D Just let em try :naughty:

rich every nurse and doctor rach and i know all have mobiles on silent in there pockets !! believe me . even on scbu !! all the rubbish you here about monitors etc etc being affected seems to be rubbish as 1 of are friends also a nurse now sells monitors etc etc and says they test the things and no mobiles will affect there performance . think the thing about mobiles and the work place is a time wasted angle and they will say anything to justify there point . little like winston churchill saying eat you carrots to make you see in the dark !

I know what your all saying - if your a professional in there and you know what equipment you have and if/how it will be effected then fair enough, but when your a Simpleton and haven't got a clue then its dam right stupid.


Where i work we have pieces of equipment that you carnt be near with mobiles or radios because of the effect they have.

well said, these people should not be given the vote or half the feckin rights they have. put them back in workhouses or at least doing some sort of community service for their rotten giros.

I work in the aircraft industry as an enginner and passengers are always told to turn off their mobile phones 'as it affects the aircraft systems' which I can tell you is a crock!

The real reason is so that people are more likely to pay attention to the crew, whilst they are carrying out boarding instructions and safety demonstrations, rather than sitting yapping on their mobiles causing distruption to other passengers who are trying to listen.

Can you imagine an aircraft packed with passengers, half of them on the phone, and a load of annoying ringtones going off every other second, it would be chaos.

It's quite simple for us though, if the passenger does not turn off their phone, or gives us any lip, we'll just off load them, or worse get them arrested! :tsk:

I think the same reason applies in hospitals, it's to try and reduce disruption to other patients, some of whom may be feeling bad enough as it is without a load more noise in their ear!

Its a public service, a little harder to kick people out.
