1) B (well, almost never unless I am expecting a very important call)
2) C (it depends, if they answer and then come back right away then I don’t mind)

At work, a personal beef of mine is when you are sitting in someone’s office meeting with them, the phone rings, they answer and then you end up sitting there for five or ten minutes while they talk on the phone about something that is no more urgent than what you are meeting about. I always forward to voicemail during meetings!

I don't have call waiting, and I don't mind if other people take their other calls and put me on hold.

I also have caller id and so does just about everyone I know. If I see that it is someone I need to talk to I try and cut the call I am on short (sometimes with explanation if needed) and call that person back

1. B. No, never and if i could get rid of it i would.

2. A. Yes, isn't my call important to you? if so then don't call me and then take another call. i find it very rude and hang up if you put me on hold. and i probably won't answer you if you call right back.

D. I don't have Call Waiting (or Caller ID) (probably because I don't have kids)
C. Depends. If they can tell it is important or are actually expecting a call, that's okay

Oh and Cnd is right, if THEY call me, then I'd be pretty irritated to be put on hold unless it is a busy office where I'm calling back and they put me on hold because they are dealing with other calls..

1. D - don't have it.
2. I dunno - never been asked to hold, but if I was, I don't think I'd mind.




( Tabbyking, lol.. I'm a great crockpot cooker and Unit and I use that every 10 days or so. Our problem is working different shifts and trying to only cook for one.

I can get a baked potato and a salad from Wendy's for $1.98. If I buy a head of lettuce, some veggies and a 5# bag of taters, not only is it more work to do it myself, but I'd end up throwing out what I didn't use over a few days after it spoiled. )

Heck no it doesn't bother me if it's a friend on the phone. I always just tell them to call me later so they can take the other call.

half, you need to take one day every two weeks and make a big fried rice, a lasagne and some chili verdi or colorado...you can just freeze things and microwave them. i love those cooking days! my dh makes huge burritos every month or so. he freezes 36 of them and we have them to eat all month. refried beans, cheese, onions, chicken or turkey or hamburger--cooked, olives, tortillas, etc.

1. D (don't have any of the "bells & whistles" on our phone...we're so old-fashioned)
2. A (I usually tell them to call me back, but if I'm too slow and I get put on hold, I hang up)
