Re: Telephone manners
OK, I totally don’t understand why people eat on the phone. I cannot stand the sound of chewing and crunching noises on the phone. It takes away from the conversation and it’s bad manners, period.
So this friend of mine called me today and had to discuss an extremely serious issue. Meanwhile, she is chomping on her bag of potato chips. Tell me, will I take her seriously? Heck no. In fact I’m so annoyed because that crunching sound is resonating in my ears. I told her that I need to go, and that she can call me when she’s done with her lunch. Frankly, I don’t care if she got hurt.
I am going to call you while eating Pakistani mango.
people calling at odd hours, infact i think unless its an emergency you should send an sms before calling in case the other person is busy or just not in the mood 2 talk .
oh well, i guess it just don’t like talking on the phone!
I am going to call you at 2 midnight.
Well, I don’t mind. My best friend does it all the time when we Skype. Munches on crisps etc. I don’t think it is rude. For me this matter is very trivial. I don’t pay attention to it. I however, never eat while talking to someone on the phone or Skype.
For you have to think of something different.
I am going to call you and not leave a message. Then will call after 2 mins and again dont leave message. Then will call your home phone, wife’s phone and still not leave a message.
I am not a jerk though
