Top 5 Reasons I do NOT answer MY Phone.

Susan -  I refuse to answer the phone when  I am eating a  meal. Especially dinnertime , because that is when everyone in the family shares their day with each other. I rarely get to eat with my family during the Spring Market so when I get the chance they have my full attention.

I was attending a Funeral Mass last month when I heard a cell phone ring and a man a few pews behind me did answer the call.  He then got up and exited the church while engaged in a muffled conversation with the person at the other end.  Pretty rude.

I don't suppose being told that the person on the other end of the line is in the bathroom is as bad as being able to figure it out yourself.

I agree, in a work meeting,  I will check the # and not answer. With a client, I will not answer and even call waiting, I will look at the number and return as soon as I am off. My clients need their full attention.

I don't answer because I get a ton of sales people trying to sell me something.  If I took those calls I'd never get any business accomplished.  Everyone in the office is really good at figuring out if they're 'real' calls or sales calls.  I mean come on....who likes telemarketeers at home or at the office. No thanks!

PS I absolutely agree that one should NOT take calls when they're with a client unless someone is calling for something they need.

Laura -- I do agree I don't answer during dinner either.

Tom - a funeral -- must not have been a person that was that important to the recipient of the phone call.  GOOD GRIEF.

Cheryl- you are right being able to figure it out, or having someone in the next stall start commenting on the conversation is JUST WEIRD.

Terri - I don't answer my call waiting either.  It's your turn for my attention, it's YOUR turn.  If I answered call waiting I'm not sure I'd ever finish a conversation.  I hate it when people put me on hold.  It's as if they are saying - "sorry this person is more important to you."

Anna- Luckily I'm not getting so many telemarketers - not yet.

Susan,

I used to answer the phone WHILE cooking dinner....till one day the phone dropped off my shoulder and onto the floor!

Now, I realize....I still need some NO PHONE time!

I don't pick up when the caller ID is blocked. Too many times it's sales call.
