I text, email or chat. Drives my husband crazy </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158246 Mon, 14 May 2012 16:19:00 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 158246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love visiting with my mom and out of town friends on the phone...I get bored hanging around with my little girls sometimes and need some adult conversation. Otherwise I prefer to email, especially with clients as it takes less time and helps me keep the information in one place without having to take notes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158242 Mon, 14 May 2012 16:14:01 +0000 mediagirl 158242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does anyone else ever put their long-winded friends on speaker phone, put the phone down and walk around or read a book while she talks? Oh, I am such a horrible person but I'm tired of hearing about You You You!! Lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158229 Mon, 14 May 2012 16:05:55 +0000 chopsuey 158229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't mind it when I have free time and a head set available! Definitely like talking on the phone less than I did when I was younger. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158190 Mon, 14 May 2012 15:35:07 +0000 hilsy85 158190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hate it. Would SO much rather email, text, or talk in person. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158186 Mon, 14 May 2012 15:32:35 +0000 Modern Daisy 158186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't mind talking on the phone so much, but I HATE voicemails. I intentionally let my mailboxes fill up and I don't delete messages. When my work started using the desktop mailbox it was like the best thing that ever happened to me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158174 Mon, 14 May 2012 15:25:13 +0000 PitBulLover 158174@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like talking on the phone with my mom, but that's about it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158162 Mon, 14 May 2012 15:19:06 +0000 heffalump 158162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I also hate it. Dh makes a lot of calls for me because I hate it so much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158161 Mon, 14 May 2012 15:18:59 +0000 sslm 158161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate it too!!!! I'm so awkward. I make my husband make most phone calls! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158157 Mon, 14 May 2012 15:17:23 +0000 Alivoo01 158157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer all other forms of communication other than talking on the phone. People sound differently on the phone and can be difficult to understand. Plus, some people can ramble on and on while talking on the phone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158127 Mon, 14 May 2012 14:58:56 +0000 Running Elley 158127@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate it!!! I only really like talking to my mom and DH on the phone while I'm driving home from work. Any other time I'd rather a text or an email. No calling. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158125 Mon, 14 May 2012 14:57:05 +0000 MamaMoose 158125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: YES!! I hate having to ask people to repeat themselves! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158123 Mon, 14 May 2012 14:56:58 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 158123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't like talking on the phone at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158116 Mon, 14 May 2012 14:53:20 +0000 DillonLion 158116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: Same! I feel so incredibly awkward and uncomfortable on the phone. But I am a big talker in person! I think it also has to do with horrible cell phone reception. I feel like half of the conversation is always "What?" "Huh?" "Can you say that again?" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158113 Mon, 14 May 2012 14:52:10 +0000 LuLu Mom 158113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends on my mood, I like to talk when I'm driving (on speakerphone) to keep me from getting all road rage-y. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158112 Mon, 14 May 2012 14:51:32 +0000 MamaMoose 158112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate it too. My husband, my parents, my brother, and my best friend are the only people I like talking to on the phone. Everyone else I just feel awkward. Which is weird because in person I pretty much talk non stop : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158110 Mon, 14 May 2012 14:51:11 +0000 cyneswith 158110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yesssss. I will even drive across town to businesses to ask questions because I HATE talking on phones! It's different with my mom and one of my best friends, but with anyone else, I wish it could be in person or in writing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158109 Mon, 14 May 2012 14:51:03 +0000 mediagirl 158109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: me. too. </p> <p>Text me, IM me, email me, talk to me on HelloBee but pleeeeease don't call me!! I always forget what I meant to say when I'm on the phone. At least with an email I can hold onto it until I remember!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158106 Mon, 14 May 2012 14:49:25 +0000 mrsjyw 158106@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to, but not so much anymore. I will have phone chats during long commutes, but those convos are usually for my out of state bests to keep in touch weekly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/talking-on-the-phone#post-158097 Mon, 14 May 2012 14:46:26 +0000 DillonLion 158097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you like talking on the phone?</p> <p>I hate it. HATE. IT. </p>
