The speakerphone paradox

[u/NeighborhoodJust1197]

I was at the pool today when a woman started having a conversation on her phone using the speaker.

I politely asked her if she could not use the speaker and pointed to my headphones.
She said, “I don’t have headphones.”
So I said, “You can just hold the phone next to your ear.”

She looked at me with a completely blank expression and said, “I’m on speakerphone.”
I said, “Well… that’s the problem.”

Apparently, we had reached the limits of modern technology.

😂😂😂 well that’s 2 red flags right away

Although, I have noticed the people who tend to talk on speaker phones in public spaces tend to lean to the narcissistic personality spectrum.

Yeah it could not possibly be that the person demanding the whole world bow to his own preferences is the true narcissist. 🙄
