How much do you talk on the phone daily?

Recommended Posts

Lately I find that I am talking so much on the phone that Im having to charge my battery more than once per day. Even more unusual, its pretty much consistently with one person. For hours. (of course this varies day to day, but generally speaking we have devoted a LOT of hours to each other on a daily basis) I would guess that I spend an average of 6 hours or more per day on the phone. Two months ago I would have said 1 to 2 hours. So how much is too much??? Or is there even such a thing?

Depends on the day / week...

At work if we have conference calls it seems like I'm on the phone forever. When my sweetie or I travel alone we are on the phone alot. If my Mom calls it's an eternity! :ph34r:

I hate the phone. If possible I talk on it less than necessary. I think it's a gender thing. Guys are basically less equipped for extended babble. (No offense Divot. But you're a girl.) :P I only have one guy friend who's known to talk on the phone for more than :10 at a time and it keeps me from talking to him as much as I should because I know it's going to be a slog.
Plus I always suspect I'm not really getting my due of the person's attention, and I know they're not getting mine.

And it gives you head cancer.

Also, when I am on the thing I find I habitually pace around the room the whole time, which makes me tired.

I voted 3-5 hours, but nearly all of that is for work. I work with a team that's scattered around the country, so communicating by phone, email, and instant messenger is our SOP. For work calls I use my desk phone or work BlackBerry, and since the bill doesn't come to me I've no idea how many minutes I might use a month. My personal phone plan has 900 minutes a month and I don't come anywhere close to using it (especially when you consider that most of my calls are to my "5 faves" and/or off-peak calls).

I used to live on the phone both talking and texting - ex lived far away and all. Now, I'm rarely on the phone - talk to my sis in NY and grandparents some... rest of the conversations are short, friend convos at work. Got me thinking now, I should prolly lower my plan since I never use my minutes... :)

I know it sounds wierd, but we havent run out of stuff yet! :) I just enjoy being on the phone with him, regardless of the topic. and FYI the 6 hours includes all the other shorter conversations I have with other random people throughout the day. He just happens to take up MOST of that time! :D:D:D

Although on average I spend about 2 hours on the phone per week (mostly at work), I *can* relate to having a strong connection with someone and spending hours on end on the telephone with him.. (And I really *hate* talking on the phone.)

I knew this one guy in highschool and we used to talk to each-other straight through the night and never get bored of it.. Just go with it.. You might never meet anyone else in your whole life who just *gets* you. Enjoy it :)
BTW, this guy turned out to be seriously gay, but to this day, he's the one person I can say *anything* to, and he just *never* judges. He's a great friend :)

Umm.. Yeah.. In hindsight, this should have been pretty obvious!! :D:D:D

But the point I was making is that a strong connection like that is rare and precious. I was in no way insinuating that her man is a fag!!! :P:D:D:D

No wonder you're like "this" so often! Stop talking about it, dammit, & DO IT! >:(

My California company has two employees in Texas, and when I'm working with them I spend some time on the phone.

Otherwise I use my phone as little as possible, mostly just to text message my wife that I'm riding my bicycle home so that if I get run over or shot and am lying on the side of the road in pain she can find me and call an ambulance.
