Phony Issues
1. Do you like talking on the phone? Why or why not?
Depends on who is it. And when is it. I almost never say no to phonecalls from some people. And in Melbourne, a phonecall from overseas is almost always greatly valued; and appreciated.
2. Who is the last person you talked to on the phone?
The phone operator for the cab company. Had to call for a cab.
3. About how many telephones do you have at home?
Which home? The one here in Melbourne, only one, and we hardly use it.
4. Have you encountered anyone who has really bad phone manners? What happened?
Yeah. Hanging up too soon. But then again, I'm guilty of that myself. And I totally hate people who put me on hold, or call-waiting.
5. Would you rather pick up the phone and call someone or write them an e-mail or a letter? Why or why not?
Depends on what it is about and who is it. Some people are harder to talk to. Some people are harder to get. I don't like calling people and catching them at bad times. But sometimes, hearing the voice is all that makes the difference.
