My whole ass life it was rude to have your phone go off during a meal. Not because of the interruption (well, kinda), but because you’re snubbing the people you’re with to engage with someone who’s not even there. That’s what the silent switch is for. I still warn people if I’m expecting a call or text during a meal or meeting, not because they’ll hear it, but because I don’t want them to think I don’t respect or enjoy their time because I’m paying attention to someone else during the meal we specifically planned.
Now somehow I’m the jerk for asking for a paper menu.
