Speaker 2 (00:03):
Down to the Jonesy demand of arms for the pub
Test talking on the phone as it passed the pub Test.
This comes after news from voter Phone about the longest phone.

Speaker 3 (00:12):
Call top spot was a call from Kilkenny in South
Australia that lasted one hundred and thirty three hours. That's
about five and a half days.

Speaker 4 (00:22):
The person I speak to on the phone the most
my brother and I chat a bit and my dad,
but he's like I am. He says, how are you going?
I say I'm going well?

Speaker 5 (00:28):
But you yep? Going well?

Speaker 6 (00:30):
Okay?

Speaker 4 (00:30):
I love you, talk to you soon. I don't like
talking on the telephone, and I don't know whether it's
because of this job. Right talk so much. I would
rather have a text.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
My daughter will ring me when she's coming home from work.

Speaker 5 (00:41):
I love a chat.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
She loves a chat. But I love a chat when
I'm right for a chat. If I'm not right for
a chat, I don't love it.

Speaker 4 (00:48):
No, But you'll have a chat if yeah.

Speaker 5 (00:51):
Of course.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
But if I ring up a business, I'll go get
a matte Hawaii, hows your date? And they are good things?
And then I always get good service.

Speaker 4 (01:00):
It's really interesting no matter what time of day. If
you phone a service provider of some kind, they say,
we're expecting longer than normal call times. Yeah, I don't
believe that.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
I like lying to them, you know, when they say
can you do the survey afterwards? Of course I will,
and of course I will.

Speaker 5 (01:16):
Of course.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
Talking on the phone does it pass the pub test?

Speaker 6 (01:21):
I'm definitely talking on the phone rather than sending a message.
Actually too long to type things. I'm thinking of this
backwards and boards, backwards and forwards with messages or what.
I don't just pick up the phone or or much easier.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Well not for me. I used to work for Telstra,
so I haven't had a home phone for seven and
a half years and I don't have a mobile phone
at all. I do may internet banking of work, and
if I have to ring up anybody or anything, I
just ring from work.

Speaker 5 (01:46):
Well no, and yes, no just for talking to sake
of it. But yes, if you need to get through
the commors, fakele Telstra because you need to be patient,
You need to be very patient, just to be waiting
and waiting and waiting, because I don't care about you anymore.

Speaker 6 (01:58):
They just want your money.

Speaker 5 (02:00):
Of course, A past the pub test. So I speak
to my eighty four year old mum three or four
times a day on the phone.

Speaker 6 (02:05):
And it's my daughter, Amali is eleventh birthday today. If
it wasn't for phone calls, I wouldn't be able to
ring her and say happy birthday. So happy birthday, Maalia.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
Happy birthday Amalia, Happy birthday of May.

Speaker 4 (02:16):
That's a nice thing.
