I know a few people who are quite genuinely concerned about “radiation”/phone signal emissions. Hence they feel speakerphone makes a difference. Seems mad to be, if only because the difference in distance from the head is marginal. But that may be why.

If you ever wonder, “Does the sound of my eating over the top of a microphone bother the other person?”

The answer is, “they are currently cleaning their gun.”
Likewise. I haven’t picked up the phone for work in years.
So much blame lies at the feet of speakerphone. There is no good reason to use speakerphone, ever.

I’m good. I don’t want to listen to you put up the dishes.

You’re definitely in trouble, Mister! But, I’m more worried about your co-worker. We all know gurls don’t poot!

huh.
I'm in a decent mood this morning, oddly enough. Maybe it's the holidays. Maybe it's the 2000's list that I'm looking forward to bailing on in the next week or so. Maybe it's that I'm finally down to the last of my coughing fit from the flu last week. Energy is back, er, well, it's coming back. but enough to make a difference now. or it could be because I just convinced a coworker that we had to move two staff to another room in the building because they were passing gas too often where they were. that was a lie, but i think he believes me. those two girls are going to be so angry with me. then i come in to a nice Tim and Eric gif. thanks. DD. nice icing on this cake of mine.

One more day till the beginning of the end of the greatest sci-fi show ever.
I am just glad she got some character development in Wandavision, as she had been somewhat skipped over in that regard in the films.
