Sample Answer:-

I don't mind people speaking on the phone in public places only when they have to discuss something that can't wait, and only is they do it quietly and briefly. And I can't stand when people start spilling personal information in the presence of complete strangers. Several days ago this was just the case. I was standing in the checkout line at the supermarket. The line was long and slow-moving. So I decided to use this time to catch up on my emails. However, that wasn't going to happen cause the woman behind me in line received a call. She was having a long, loud, animated conversation on her cell phone. And she didn't care that a dozen people must have wanted to do what they were planning to. Instead, everyone learned that her mother had diabetes, her boss was cheating on his wife, and her sister was thinking of breaking up with her boyfriend. And she wasn't even afraid that the wrong third party could overhear the conversation. I was really annoyed. It was an invasion of my personal space and peace of mind. If I could have predicted all that, i would have picked another line. But it was what it was. I was just standing there, hoping this nightmare wouldn't last forever.
