    not really. She's a very neutral woman in her 50s or late 40s. She's a low ranking in the the brackets.

    kindly turn the volume down on your phone's ringer. I don't need to experience a sound lobotomy every time someone calls you. again, you are only 12" from me.

    they obviously did NOT get the memo...

    turn down the volume on your phone ringer. It doesn't need to sound like a fire alarm and you are right next to it, why does it need to be that loud? you will not miss hearing it

    Even when it plays "Mighty Quinn", and yells "Yaaaaay! Text message!" when I get a text? :shifty: It has to be loud or else I can't hear it in my purse, so hmph.

    Luckily hardly anyone ever calls me when I'm at work. I have a desk phone.
