Game of Phone: An Epic Battle Between Poor
Manners and Decency in the Workplace
As the sorcery of telecommunications sweeps the
office landscape, seven houses harness its
wonders for good or ill, threatening to tear apart
the very fabric of the workplace…
House of Multitasking: Rudeness
Through Distraction
Texting and talking calls during
meetings under the guise of “getting
more done,” this house invites the ire
of its neighbors at every turn.
50% or people consider texting or
taking calls during meetings rude.
House of Awkwardness: “No
Place Too Strange”
Unbothered by locations that
would make others flee, this
house takes to the darkest parts
of the office for the most
ordinary conversations.
75% of adults admit to using
their phone while going to the
bathroom
House of Courtesy: “The Protector of
Boundaries”
When at court with co=workers, this the
most noble of houses places their phones’
ringers on silent mode and, when troubled
by a personal call, always makes haste to
the nearest private space.
24% of workers spend at least an hour on
their phone at work for personal reasons
House of Carelessness:
“Ignorance Begets Offence”
Unprepared for the power of
modern technology, they hold
calls over speakerphone in
crowded office spaces and forget
to silence their phones during
meetings.
38% of people consider loud
conference calls rude
House of Over-Calling: “Fear My
Call”
No one is safe from the unending
barrage of calls from the phone
zealots of this house, not even the
neighbor in the cubicle next door.
House of Non-
Communication: “No, You Go
Ahead”
This house’s halls
reverberate with the sound
of disjointed conversations
broken by the lag time from
office phone to cell phone
and back.
House of Obliviousness:
“The World is Our Phone
Booth”
This house has the
unique ability to, at the
first ring of their phone,
fall into a trance-like
state where they
become ignorant of
anyone in their midst
and speak with raised
voice.
The average person talks
3x louder on their
mobile phone than in
person
Share your workplace tales of telephonic
intrigue #gameofphones
