Do you?

I'm currently on a fairly frustrating one. Basically me asking why we need something, and the response is "because we do."

:angry:

I've skied during one, at Hunter :)
I had a call last Saturday at noon.

Made it on Vertigo, right at the crossover from Needle's Eye. Next step is to do it while actually skiing a groomer, then I'm gonna try it in the bumps. Gonna need a headset that stays in pretty well.

I've had telecons where I need to listen for about 30 seconds of an hour's worth of meetings...:roll:

Put phone on mute and try to do real work at the same time...

I've never had any telecons where I was able to be at the privacy of my own desk, mine are always with onsite co-workers in a conference room or something.

just project your computer up on the screen and let everyone enjoy AZ during the call :)

I had some periods in my career where I had 8 or 10 hours of conference calls per week. That gets old fast.

8-10 is a light week at my job. I've gone over 24.


Yep we talk more about doing things than actually doing them. AT&T sucks.

I'm not likely to be dragging my tower to the conference room just so I can surf AZ in front of a bunch of non-skiers. ;) Someday I might have use of a laptop again..
