Friday Five 3/14
It's that time again...
1. Do you like talking on the phone? Why or why not?
Not really, at least not at work, since usually everything I do here requires what seems like hours of explanation.
2. Who is the last person you talked to on the phone?
Coworker Jacob. Waiting for him to come in so I can demonstrate how to install a web server certificate.
3. About how many telephones do you have at home?
Four, connected. One cordless, one in the kitchen, one in the office, one in the bedroom.
4. Have you encountered anyone who has really bad phone manners? What happened?
Bad phone manners? Like what? Not saying hello/goodbye? Yeah. My boss is like that. My best friend, too. But the person who is worst is my grandmother. She just hangs up when she's done.
5. Would you rather pick up the phone and call someone or write them an e-mail or a letter? Why or why not?
Email or letter, depending on the urgency. Letters are somehow more special. Phone calls are great too, when I can get motivated, but also require both parties to be interested in holding a conversation, while letters and email are one-way.
