Ever had a one sided conversation on the phone? I have a few tips/ideas to occupy your time, while on those calls. ;o)

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Internet access
  • Cleaning supplies
  • Arts & craft items
  • A good sense of humor

Step1
Play a game online. There are many sites that offer free games. My favorite place to play is www.pogo.com. They have free games there, or you can join for a small fee each month to join club pogo. They have tons of different types of games to play.
Step2
It's a great time to clean your house! Do the dishes, clean the bathroom, wash your floors. It sure makes the task a little more tolerable when you have something to occupy your mind while you're cleaning. And at the end of the call, you'll like looking around & seeing everything sparkle. Now you have time to go play on pogo! ;o)
Step3
Have a project you started, but haven't had time to finish? Pull out that project and see how much you can get done before the end of the conversation!

Tips & Warnings

  • Club pogo is very addictive! lol
  • Make sure to add in a brief comment here & there to let your caller know you are still listening! ;o)
