I hate, absolutely hate when people ring me and they're eating. If I'm munching on something I don't pick up the phone and answer it. If I take a bite of an apple I don't start dialing as I take a munch, why do people do that FFS?
I'm useless in meetings like that, I'd just pipe up and say something.
I was doing First Aid training and this chick kept messing with her phone, it kept vibrating as she received messages and everyone was rolling their eyes. I went and grabbed it and put it on the desk up the front. Not one person said a word. The other people in the room sat motionless, the guy giving the class just went "Haven't seen that before" and went back to where he was.

My role sees me average between 60-70 phone calls a day, speaking to our sales staff. I would say a good 5-10% of these calls daily would be from people who call me whilst eating lunch/snacking at their desk. Drives me nuts.
I am too soft to say anything, though.

I pick and choose when it's needed. The guy today is a very religious man, so I won't be swearing, because I'll lose all credibility with him.
The other three cop it a bit though.

Puncture with a knife and pour into a glass. Problem solved.
Failing that, will a can opener work?

Failing that...... go and buy some stubbies, they taste better anyway.

Totally disagree mate.
Cans (IMO) taste better, are colder, easier to stack in esky/fridge & bounce if you drop'em.
