oh God!!!! Dont even get me started on the whole Desi and telephone manner things. This one time i was on the phone to a friend and my dad picked up on the other end and started dialing and i was like "dad can you put the phone down pleaaasee" and he asked "who is this??" and i said "your son". Dad "my son vhere you calling from??.....OH MR SONNY??" (he had a friend called sonny). And what is it with them always having to say bye like 5 times lol. And then theres mum lol. An entire convo on the phone consists of three words. hanjee, haa, jee. And they all mean the same thing.
I hate talking on the phone in general, and when I do have to call someone, it's to discuss something specific, not to chatter aimlessly like a woman. :D
You know what else is annoying? People who breathe loudly on the phone.
Actually people who breathe loudly in general. One time at Barnes n Noble, I was sitting next to this guy who kept breathing so loudly that I couldn’t enjoy my book. All the other seats were taken…and I gave him several side-long dirty looks…but to no avail. I should have copied/competed with him instead…that might have worked.
Yes, I know some can’t help it and that it may be a health issue. I’m also guilty of doing this on purpose myself to annoy people. I’m a bad person.

OOOH…Damn, how could I have forgotten that one. And it’s usually women…often times Black women (in my observation). They’ll be so loud that everyone can hear their bidniss…“Oh HELLL no she didn’t! I told her she betta…bla bla bla bla.” This one time…as I was walking into the store of a gas station…this woman was behind me …talking so loudly on her phone…“How come I ain’t hear from you no more? You ain’t callin me no more. What’s up with that?” (something along those lines). I wanted to …good Samaritan that I am…tap her on her shoulder and tell her, “He ain’t interested in you no more girlfriend”…but I chickened out. Then she goes in the store and asks the cashier about the store’s address and said that someone was following her. So much drama in that store.
I deal with clients on the phone daily..and these are the things they do that drive me nuts :
1.Yup..I get annoyed when ppl are on the phone with me and they are eating..and talking with food in their mouth!!!
Breathing loudly…very creepy..I always place them on hold while I take care of their requests!
When you call and then think about the reason you call…
When ppl interrupt before I’m done with my explanation
Kids screaming their heads off in the back ground..and then mom yelling back to tell them to be quiet!!! (its more annoying when the mom yells..coz she is yelling in my ear!!)
When ppl don’t pay attention to what you are saying and then makes you repeat it like 3-4 times
I’m sure there is more…oh..my mom…she always hangs up without saying “BYE”
Ohhhhh...how about when people put their cellphone on speaker! I have this coworker who does it all the time when she is in the breakroom! It is so annoying!
Looolll I have this problem but always with middle-aged Bengali men or Nigerian men who shout down the phone to make sure the person on the other end hears them.
Gahhhh
we have been receiving these private number calls for months when you pick up no one talks..
about 4-5 days ago a private number was calling I didn’t pickup knowing it must be that dumb caller then after 2 mins the private number called agian this time answering machine kicked in n we hear “shayad ghar par nahin hain”…
turns out my dads cousins would call private number to make sure we are home or not ignoring them before calling unblocked…
n everytime we mentioned how many private calls we have been getting recently and noone talks they never uttered a word that it’s been them all along

Oh jeez. what about the other way around....when you're on the phone and someone is bugging you?
It happens often enough at work, if I'm on the phone, esp with a client, its like, they can't see that I'm on the phone....really...if someone interrupts me, I have no problem just putting up the finger (NO NOT THE MIDDLE ONE!) to mean "wait".

. Appropriately titled. Yous a funny kid RV
Yes, that would be the title of the song coming out in me.
