'Conference Call Bingo' Turns Your Pain Into a Game

By Bruce Carton

Via the Inter-Alia blog I came across a new way to deal with even the most painful of conference calls: Conference Call Bingo! There is probably nobody out there who has not had to deal with the pitfalls of the modern-day conference call: crying babies or dogs barking on the line of the person working from home; the dude calling in from his cell phone with bad reception; the lady dialing in from the airport with flight announcements on the P.A. system interrupting every 30 seconds; the loud talker; the soft talker; the foreign accent-talker you cannot understand; the two people who keep talking over each other; the business-speak cliches you must endure ("at the end of the day"); and so on. With Conference Call Bingo, however, you can turn these landmines into a game, and perhaps preserve some of your sanity in the process. See if you can string together five-in-a-row to get Bingo on your next conference call, and even share your score on Facebook.
