What do you guys think about using your phones when you’re out having a meal with someone?

I think it’s terrible. It’s so rude and disrespectful. There’s no need for it.

You can try the game where everyone puts their phones in the middle of the table, faced down. Whoever is first to grab their phone during dinner has to pay for dinner. ;)

In my experience it depends on the context. If the dinner is personal in nature, leave your cell phone off; if it is a business dinner, there is more flexibility.

It depends on who I’m with, with my friends we have our phones out all the time. With strangers or older people I tend not to take it out.
