speaker phones in the office

Published Jul. 4, 2008

 

Speakerphone Annoyance
Have you ever worked in an office where someone insisted upon listening to their voice mail using the speakerphone (at full volume, naturally). It can really begin to bother you after a while. There was a fellow in my office who was the ultimate offender.

I found a fairly easy fix for that, though. I have my wife call his desk when he's not there and leave a message like "Hi, this is Candy from 1-900-HOT-BABE. You haven't paid for the 'toys' we sent you, you naughty boy. You wouldn't want me to come over there and spank you, would you?"

It is the last time you hear that particular speakerphone, I can assure you.

That's a fantasy, for if he could show your number calling him, you would be fired for harassment, and rightly so, but the idea is sound, and could be done with some tactful modification.

Perhaps a simple scream into the phone saying, "turn down your speaker phone."

Of course, the right thing to do would be to approach your co-worker and ask politely for him to turn it down, but of course, that would not make for an interesting blog. I did enjoy the blog...funny notion. Reminds me of the lipstick on the bathroom mirror.

Perfect !

LOL!

Now, THAT'S funny! I used to work with a guy who did that in his cubicle -- I wish I'd heard this idea back then!
