Does this ever happen to you?

I find this so annoying. My friend just called me to tell me something, i don't know what it is because the whole she was talking to me she was also talking to her family in the background and they were all talking and i couldn't really hear what she was saying. I tell her..."why don't you call me back when you can talk" she says "Oh i can talk now" and i say "well it's kind of difficult to have a conversation to you when you are talking to 4 other people at the same time" this isn't the first time, she has a habit of calling me when her house is really noisy, it makes me crazy.

5. If your phone has a mute feature...

Ask her to please wait a moment, mute the phone, and come back in ten minutes.

8. Yes, actually this happened at work on Friday

We were in a conference call with an office in PA and the folks there were having a conversation amongst themselves as if we weren't on the line at all. I nearly fell asleep. The fact that it was 230 in the afternoon and the room was very warm didn't help matters either.

It especially makes me mad when people do this when I am calling on my cell phone and using my minutes. Oh sure that's fine, you have your little conversation on my minutes.
