Sorry, couple of times it's just been unavoidable. I do avoid it as much as possible, but I have a bus transfer that sometimes takes 45 minutes and there's a coffee shop. The last one my boss' boss wanted a sudden meeting, and well, it happened.

That's when you hold the phone to your face - like a phone - so you can talk at a normal volume and hear people really well.

phones were designed to be used, well, like phones. People holding them like a slice of pizza and shouting into them like some narcissist 'reality' TV contestant are carefully defeating all the optimisation and annoying everyone on the same city block as them.

Is that what op was talking about? No I use headphones.

A video call with headphones isn't any louder. But people can still hear one side

Only a long list of very particular choices would leave you in a situation where it’s “unavoidable.” I don’t accept this excuse. Get your shit together.

Starting with choosing to not starve in this economy.

you have shit boundaries then. you dont answer work outside of work hours and make that everyone elses problem too

ITT people with jobs where they have to be available vs those who do not.

Yeah, didn't expect quite this much pushback but here we are. Apparently everyone else has jobs where they can tell their boss to pound sand regularly and not have to worry about ending up in the unemployment line in a few months, so I guess hey good on them.

People who can't imagine anybody else having a situation different from theirs.

I mean, it was 2pm, but kk.
