    I cant stand when someone calls and then mid conversation asks you to hold because someone is “clicking in”. I hang up on them.

    one of my biggest phone pet peeves, is someone in the car on speaker phone, and having a different conversation with each passenger in the car.

    Re apushatayid hanging up, my friends and i have an understanding. if the click lasts longer than one minute, we hang up, and the other person calls back when the click conversation is finished. problem solved and no hurt feelings. if the primary conversation is important, we either ignore the click (unless a parent is calling-always top priotity) or we answer and say “i’m sorry, have to call you back later”. that way there are no (major) problems.

    apushatayid: I cant stand when someone calls and then mid conversation asks you to hold because someone is “clicking in”.

    Yes. I agree. Basically, what they are in fact saying is “wait a minute, there is someone else more important than you that I prefer to speak to”.

    These guys dont deserve yours or my precious time.

    my “policy” is that i don’t take clicks. at all. (on my cellphne)but it sometimes causes issues when s/o realy needs 2 reach me and it’s important….

    when someone clicks in to the person your speaking to, and he lifts up does not mean he is more important than you. maybe its carpool, the doctor.. etc and its important. or maybe its their spouse and thwwn yes, he/she is more important. no offense

    The way I see it. If it really IS important, they will either leave a message, or try again very soon.

    my phone hangup: I don’t like to talk on the phone!

    #875135

    mod 80 he didnt ask for the corny answer

    #875136

    My cell phone is a slider and when s/o beeps in it automatically transfers me to that call even if I don’t press a/th!!

    It is so annoying and the people don’t understand why I’m frustrated when they call!! If only they knew that they made me hang up on someone more important than them!!!!

    I cant believe how people literally get offended if someone picks up the beep while speaking to them.

    You people are such big shots!!

    Yes, sometimes, there are phone calls that are more important than you.

    Or if you know that the click will just take one minute, there’s nothing wrong in picking up.

    Or as someone mentioned above- it might be her spouse/parent/dr. Etc…
