Stop with the ringback tones

I just hate them so much.

I am working on the company xmas party and the event lady prefers you call her cell phone.  So I have been "enjoying" Pink every time I need to talk to her.

I don't like those either.  And while I don't mind as much on my friends phones, it seems rather unprofessional for a business person.

I feel like I've been living under a rock, but what's a ringback tone?

When you call someone and instead of ringing, you get a song.

i can't believe people still do this. this is one of the most annoying trends ever. when it first started, i thought someone was answering their phone in a really loud room.

Wait, that's seriously still a thing? I remember it being super cool like, 7 years ago. I always got confused and tried talking to the nonexistent person on the other end thinking they couldn't hear me over their loud, shitty music.

I get to listen to a lot of them when I have to leave messages for patients. The country music ringbacks are the WORST.

Funny you posted this. I tried to call a parent and it went straight to playing music, so I thought it was her voicemail and kept calling back. Finally, she picked up and asked why I kept hanging up.

 

My Bad.

I was so happy the day my sister switched phone companies and got rid of her Fiona Apple ringback.
