No one wants to hear your conference call.
On a recent layover to Paris, I embarked on my obligatory “stop to use the restroom before a flight” routine and witnessed the most horrifying phone behavior: a woman on speakerphone, speaking to what I presume was her partner, while in a stall using the restroom.
Personally, the airport time is my meditation time to prepare for a flight, and I find myself annoyed listening to the people around me yell voice notes at the phone about ridiculous topics or take speakerphone work calls.Stop talking on the phone in the bathroom I nearly lost it when I noticed a woman charging her phone in the corner of a bathroom by the hand dryer - on speakerphone, seemingly on a work call. Airports bathrooms are chaotic enough without this behavior.People think they’re quiet when using ear buds, but they most often encourage you to speak louder, especially when divulging details about the night before with your friend on the other line.
If everyone is on their phones, it’s consistently adding time to the boarding process. “It’s especially shocking to me because I’ll start working at 3:30 in the morning, and I’m always wondering who is even up and willing to answer these FaceTimes,” says Pascale.
