Is it rude to borrow an unused power outlet without asking? - eviltoast

Sometimes I’m at the doctor’s office, at the library, or even at the grocery store and see an unused power outlet. My phone is dying. I feel weird plugging in, but I feel even weirder asking for permission.

    Edit: I got it backwards, meaning these are what I’d consider acceptable places to charge your phone.

    Airport? Yeah but use a no-data charging cable.

    Mall? I don’t see why anyone would care about that.

    Restaurant? If it’s under your table or very close by.

    Parking lot? Do they have outlets?

    Stadium? Where would they be charging it at a stadium, maybe where the bathrooms and concessions are? If it’s out of the way I don’t think that would bother anyone.

    Your friends house? Yeah unless they’re running an off-the-grid setup or something.

    The office? Yes fuck the man.

    Classroom? I assume they can charge it somewhere while in class, I’ve been out of there for a while though.

    Museum? Eh, feel like it can wait.

    Cinema? No.
