Can't any one of your damn little Scooby club at least try to remember that I hate you all?

I cant understand why we cant hook him up to the wireless router.

I love this idea. It's also making me laugh, possibly because I'm a little punchy.

It's usual to be nervous. At least, I think so. No matter the age of the kid, the first time I take care of them, I'm usually a wee bit hypersensitive to everything. It's partly getting to know them, what's normal, what's not and why are they making that face?!!!

Vortex, maybe an obscene caller who's into efficiency? several calls all at once?

Note: I don't know why I'm so obsessed with the save-ability of La Lohan.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I keep getting into long drawn-out discussions with people at work, too. You all are lucky I'm not going on and on here!

Why is there someone BREATHING into the phone so that we all hear it?

Someone who nodded off with their face next to the phone?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

You can't just say something? He might mean to have his mute on his cell or something. God, conference calls. Especially with cell phones. What nightmares.

I remember a corporate training call where the instructions repeatedly said to mute your end until the q&a period. Mind you, there were over 100 dialed in.

OH MY GOD. It was insane. People were not muting, having full blown conversations, etc. I have no idea why they set it up that way (well, because they are dumb), nor why they didn't just hangup on those people (well, because they are dumb), instead of nagnagnagging (well, because they are dumb) someone who probably had the volume turned all the way down anyway.

So lame.

Vortex, that drives me batshit when people do that. WTF? Even if you don't think it's you, wouldn't you get paranoid and check? I sure do.

I was on one recently where the trainer told everyone they could mute by hitting 6 or whatever, so half the call was the sound of people hitting 6. Argh!
