Yesterday at Starbucks, I was sitting quietly with my earbuds in listening to music. Like normal people do. Two tables over, two women were sitting and talking to each other. Normal. Next to me, in between me and the two women, was a single woman with a notebook. Single woman at one point gets out her phone and starts yapping on her speakerphone with another person.

After putting up with it for a few minutes, I finally interrupted her: "Do you not have earbuds? That is extremely rude. It's disturbing others in this space."

She responded along the lines of her talking on the speakerphone is the same as the women next to her speaking to each other. I said no, what you doing is much worse. My criticism of her did inspire her to get off her speakerphone and then move to a different table, further from me.

I post this in hopes that everyone who reads this, hopefully thousands of you, will all do the same thing. Whenever someone does shitty rude self-absorbed behavior, like yapping on a speakerphone in a public place, I hope you will alll call them out. I think nearly all of them are aware that their behavior is shitty and rude and self-absorbed. Even so, they need to be publicly embarrassed by it. I don't know that these trash people are exactly capable of being embarrassed, but they at least need to be publicly called out. I think there's a reasonable chance that, when being called out in public, they will have some shred of embarrassment or self-awareness. I think they mostly at least will stop the behavior, which suggests that they do have some shred of awareness of how shit their behavior is.

After all, if we just continue to tolerate this shit behavior, there's no hope of it ever stopping. In other words, if they're going to be shitty, let's all be shitty together. Maybe they'll learn a lesson. I doubt it, but maybe. It did make me feel a little bit better to tell this person that her behavior is trash. Does she really think that yapping on a speakerphone is the same as two humans speaking to each other in person? If she's that stupid, I'm glad I pointed out the obvious truth to her.
