If you are moving your lips, silently talking to yourself, and not even looking at me - you are not listening. I don't care how many of my words you can repeat back to me, or whether or not you have a grasp of their meaning. You are, at best, hearing, but not listening.
If you are on the phone with me and I'm on hold, or you're talking to your friends, or basically anything that involves me silently standing there like a moron with a phone to my head - you are not talking to me. I am sure the other call is very important. I'm sure you'll have your headset volume set real soon. Here's a crazy idea: call me back when you want to actually talk.
Just because I waste my time, doesn't mean I want you to waste it for me.
