jdotmi1. Do you like talking on the phone? Why or why not?
--Sometimes. It really depends. If I'm not doing anything else I don't mind it. Some friends I can speak with for hours on the phone without issue. Othertimes it's all I can do to just not hang up the phone. Of course, I love telemarketers. Nothing like screaming obscenities into the phone to make your day. Just kidding. I don't usually cuss out telemarketers. I just hang up on them.
2. Who is the last person you talked to on the phone?
--An employee at one of our stores.
3. About how many telephones do you have at home?
--There are three telephones plugged in and two or three that are in storage.
4. Have you encountered anyone who has really bad phone manners? What happened?
--I consider anyone who is a telemarketer to have very bad phone manners. I probably told them, politely, to go fuck themselves and then hung up.
5. Would you rather pick up the phone and call someone or write them an e-mail or a letter? Why or why not?
--Instant Messaging all the way. I don't really check emails enough (or send them) to be a good way of contacting someone if I really want to get ahold of them. It's good for a quick FYI but that's about it. If they're not online, I try calling them. If they're not answering the phone, I leave a voice mail. If they don't have voice mail, then it sucks to be them.
