You Know You're Boring When...

...someone falls asleep and begins snoring on the conference call that you're hosting. True story folks, apparently I really know how to bore the hell out of people on the phone. This past week, about 10 minutes into a call with the Japan team, mid sentence I'm suddenly interrupted by the deep, rumbling snort of a man well into the REM cycle. Now I'm not really sure who learned the biggest lesson: me, with a lesson on the need to spice things up on my teleconferences; or, the dude who fell asleep and learning the true meaning (and importance) of using the mute button on the phone(which truthfully, is something they teach you as an intern).
