Phone Hell


For the past 90 minutes I have been sitting in on a conference call that doesn’t look like it will end anytime soon. So far I have spoken 4 sentences over the entirety of the 90 minutes +. My neck hurts and my ear is sweating. It is difficult to not start conversations with others while “on” this phone call. I am really going a bit nuts. Not to mention that they whine a bunch whenever someone types.

To recap:
Kill me now
Please, please make it stop
Why can’t I die?
Why can’t this phone call end
I hate the sweaty ear
Sweet merciful Jebus, please let me go into the nether
Tomorrow I shall write about the dreaded Z

  2. Out West we have a little thing we like to call "speaker phone."
    I am seeing a lot of those new-fangled bluetooths (blueteeth?) around lately, though.
    We are getting very close to my dream of wearing a clear, photo-sensitive welders mask with a built in headset and computer screen flip up a la The Borg. Mine will have a Hello Kitty logo in sparkly rhinestones right below eye-level.

    There are some bugs that need to be worked out prior to me even thinmking about giving someone else a template. So, sorry, no.

    Atmikha:
    I am in a cube world and therefore bound by common decency laws to not use a speaker phone.

    Hello Kitty? Really?

    I also am privy to the use of an archaic phone without the ability to mute. I am swimming in tech, here at work.
