Why do people insist on eating/chewing while talking to me on the phone? Are these people not aware that they are speaking into a device that works like a
microphone and AMPLIFIES their every sound?! I usually just grin and bear it listening to every smack and bite of the food but sometimes I just tell them to
put the fucking food down and just talk. It's truly truly disgusting.

NO one else hates this!? You must all be those fuckers that talk on the phone while eating, chewing into the microphone in the phone and annoying the person
you are talking to completely. Nice.

I don't care so much on the phone, but in person? Yes I mind. Chew, swallow then talk.

Oh it is annoying on the phone. I used to speak with clients all the time on the phone who'd be smacking gum, chewing hard candy, or just eating their
lunch. People multitask so much these days, manners have become irrelevant.

Well why don't you stop calling them during their dinners, you dirty Telemarketer?

I hate people that don't talk into the phone. The phone is just wedged up there somewhere between skin folds, all muffled and what not. Can't hear a
damn thing they're saying.

UGH, huge pet peeve... especially when it's my sister, I don't know why but it drives me nuts when she does it....other people I can handle, but when
it's her I want to reach through the phone and strangle her

If you call me while I'm having dinner, I'm gonna chew on the phone. It's my way of saying call me later.

It's not even exclusively meal times since I try not to call during dinner but anytime day or night..people are chewing gum, eating apples, eating ice
cream, cookies, etc..
It doesn't make a difference.. bottom line is that it's disgusting. |

I don't mind when someone eats while on the phone, I just hate it when they take a big loud shit while talking to me. That's just wrong. Hard to
carry on a conversation when you can hear loud farts and poop splashs coming from the other end of the line.

My son's boss is a big mouth breather. He said he HATES talking to her cause she breathes so heavy into the phone that it distracts him from what she's
telling him he needs to do. If she was a young hot thing, it would be different, but he said if you want to know what she looks like, just picture a 60 year
old Oompa Loompa with a blonde beehive.

Eating an apple while on the phone makes me sound casual.
