So. Tired. of. Cell Phone Manners or lack thereof

What is the deal? 20 years ago we used answering machines to screen our calls and now no matter WHAT we're expected to keep a cell within reach of our selves and answer all calls immediately? I called a vendor yesterday and clearly he had a ear bud in and I could not hear him, the quality was so poor. Unfortunately when I told him the call was so awful I couldn't understand him he said sighhhhhh hang on and I guess changed to just the cell and it GOT NO BETTER!
Its okay .. you can call me back. If you are under a house under a sink or under a car I GET IT .. call me back. It just rings of desperation and IMHO unprofessional... They get angry b/c we can't hear them. I GET it Bub Clean up your act! Or is it me who needs to get a grip?
I love cell phones I have a cell phone... but isn't there a time and place?
