9. I think it's partly because we're 'trained' to pay attention to phone calls
because we're so used to missing words here and there. I have a great deal of difficulty with office speakerphones, if I ran a company there would be a single speakerphone in a locked conference room and that's it.

People who have those radio-style conversations, where the person on the other end is coming through the main non-ear speaker of a cellphone deserve to be punched in the face.
