I don't like them. one office in our company always puts me on speaker phone. There are 6 women in that office, they talk to me simultaniously. Well, today I think I broke them from it. I asked with concern, so what did the doctor ever say about your rash? gee, she picked up that phone pretty quick...

no accounting for the things that make me happpy.....

Good for you CPN, I can't stand them, they are so echo-y, and my paranoia is ignited when someone puts me on speaker phone.
My friend has a habit of putting people on speaker phone, ALL the time, but he doesn't tell you where he is at, or who is with him. Then he might mention someone's name, sort of a bait game, to see what you will say about the person. Whom of course, is right there next to him.
Now I don't answer my phone when he calls me.

well I asked them in the past not do use it when calling me. and they play that little bait game too...what do you think about this or that. or so and so did this or that.....while all of them are listening to me...(their office is the gossip churn)...I do not like it. uless it's a teleconference (which are usually planned in advance)- work calls should be as private as possible.

all calls should be private as possible. its just...nicer to the person on the other end of the phone and more personal. if I embarrass them everytime they do it, hopefully they will "get it" and decide to actaully pick up the phone whe calling me, like a considerate person would do.

still makes me happy ...I got em!
