How do u answer the telephone?


How do u answer the telephone?

Normally I pick it up, being careful to hold the earpiece near my ear, and the mouth piece near my mouth- then I take a deep breath and say" Dominos -would you like to hear our specials-what's your home phone number-can you hold - thanks!!!!"

I pick it up and say, 'hello'.

hello?

Hello

idk lol

Boringly. Either:

"Hello?"

or

"Good Morning!" (any time of day)

I say hello

"Hello"
I guess it's not the most "etiquettiest" way...

hello? oh hi! hehe something like that

pick up n say hello u hoodrat

strange

I once shared an apartment with a woman who answered the phone;

"Traverse City morgue. You stab em, we'll slab em."

She just laughed when I told her I didn't like it. We weren't room mates long.

Just a simple "Hello?" not anything exciting or out there.

I can't think of any other way than "hello". Can you?

Helloooooooooo There you sweet thing.....

With my cell phone, I say hello. With my home phone I know its somebosy desperatley wanting me to refinance my home so i pick up,"yes,this is the homeowner with an interest rate of .... and no,I dont want to refinance."

Pick it up, press 'yes' (cell) or put the receiver to my head (house), say "hello". Don't want to complicate something as simple as answering the phone, y'know.

Depends...whose phone are you answering...Yours?
Hi or hello, (your name) speaking

"Welcome, caller, to the electronic interface into the humble abode of Bill Thompson, whose only goal at this moment is to put you at ease and establish a brief but important kinship with you. If you will be so kind, please state your first and last name, reason for your call, and the expected outcome. If there are any groundrules for our conversation that you need to establish, please make them clear and I will, within reason, endeavor to abide by them. Let us begin this exciting journey with the aforementioned information request and then allow our communications protocol to proceed along a less formal route.":

This is how I answer the telephone in my neighborhood:

WHO IS IT!?!

I don't say hello - I say yellow - don't know why just do
If it's my kids they always say some other color
then we just talk

hello crazy summerhome, some r here, some r not, head cueball speaking.


leaves em speachless everytime..

I use my hand to answer the phone. Then I say hello.

Have great day!

Just say Hello.

In the Beginning God created heavens and earth.
God gives you air to breathe and sunshine to enjoy.
God gives you water to drink and food to eat.
God gives you a wonderful body and sound mind, to live.
God loves you, and you are precious to Him.
Son of God died on the Cross to save us from condemnation.
Jesus鈥?love is boundless and everlasting.
We have the hope of Heaven through Jesus.
Life therefore has fantastic and glorious future!

"hello" "hi" simple two words.

so many answers for such a simple question. Your going to have a hard time choosing the best. I say Hello, at my brothers house if one of the kids answer, they say "Last name residence"

Pick the telephone and say hello and if you want say your name too and the residence.

i let it ring twice so my caller id will kick in and then if i dont know the person calling , ill pick up and say smith residence, chris speaking how may i help you?
if i recognize the name a simple hello or hiya!
