I've noticed that my mom always sounds really nice when she picks up the phone, She has amazing phone manners.
I, personally, do not. I mean, when at school I have to say "It's a great day at sherrill's, how may I help you?". But at home, I just talk normal. shrug.gif I mean... I am polite most of the time anyways, but I dont... try to be over-polite or go out of my way to be really really nice. 'Cause I normally am nice as it is.. So yeah. haha

Do you guys have good phone manners? or do you just act/talk normal?

Usually when I call someone, I say "Hi this is Allison, may I speak to blah blah?"
and my mom ALWAYS lectures me to "stay on the phone until the other person has ended the call" stubborn.gif
