Corporate conference calls suck.
Conference call... sucking... my will... to live...
Very few things suck quite as much as a conference call where you're interested work-wise in about 5% of what's being discussed. I'm unable to focus on or work on anything else, I have to remain quiet, I can't listen to any music, I have to sit with a phone headset stuck between my ear and shoulder, and I'm BORED TO TEARS.
It doesn't help that one person involved is one of our most annoying contacts with a particular client, and that another one has an extremely soothing voice. I keep switching between bristling with annoyance and slipping into a slumber.
