10 Reasons I Hate Speakerphone

1. It's hard to understand someone on the other end.

2. You have no idea who's on the other end who can hear you.

3. You have no control over the volume of your own voice.

4. When using the speakerphone for a conference call, multiple users don't tend to mute their phones.

5. It gives people a false sense of importance.

6. When more than one person is in the same office area on speakerphone with the same conference call, things get stupid REALLY fast.

7. The dial-ring-pickup maneuver.

8. There is NEVER a reason to walk around with your cellphone on speaker.

9. It's lazy.

10. It's distracting to other people in the office when you have VERY personal phone calls on high-volume speakerphone.
