Which kind?

More than 1 person in the room, using speakerphone, or just 4, or 5 people all on the line?

About 15 people in separate locations all on the line. Some using speaker phone just to make it harder for everyone else to hear. That plus the noise gates on the conference line makes it nearly impossible to have a conversation.

Especially when some nut doesn't mute their phone and continues to talk in the background.

I love them. 

I'd much rather CC than have to take a trip to have a meeting.

Yep.  Plus they're billable hours.  With a bit of practice you can charge three digits for an hour call and cop a 45 minute nap.

Seemed an appropriate enough time to mention that I'm in a meeting/conference call tomorrow from 8AM to 3:45PM (scheduled, but they usually run over).  We're the Mother Ship, and we'll have our offspring parading through.

Hate?  That's a pretty strong word.  Are you sure you don't mean "greatly dislike"?

Yeah.  Like that time with your car.  You got downgraded. ;D
