Jeez, people. That's what the mute button is for. That and catty tabletalk.
That's not what making out sounds like -- unless I'm doing it wrong?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Our wings are not tired
I amazed that some people remember to breathe so it doesn't surprise me at all that they are outwitted by a mute button.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm still not entirely sure why anyone puts the whole of a conference call on hold, to music. Unless it's you're meeting, and you really want to drag everything to a screeching halt in your absence, DON'T DO IT. IT'S RUDE. Use your mute button, or hang up and call back in.

The hold button is big and red, the mute button could be almost anything and someone might have to hunt for it.

Hold button and the mute button are exactly the same size and shape on our phone systems.
I never bother learning how to mute a con call on the con call software, because we use too many providers and it's confusing.
PLUS I HAVE A MUTE BUTTON. I use it all the time anyway.

We have it in the rooms, but not the phones.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm always paranoid that my mute button won't work, and people will hear my cat yowling or me blowing my nose.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Wait, you let you cat blow your nose?
Perhaps I misread that.

Yeah, I usually use my phone's mute button rather than fiddle with/remember the concall's version ("is it star six or pound six?")
I am eating ALL the "dal mix". IT IS SO ADDICTIVELY GOOD. Just a little spicy. Crunchy. NOM. I don't normally go to Whole Foods, but I may have to go back and get another bag or three. And possibly try the other things in their line.
