Headset - Hoping # 3's the charm
Ok, I am on my third phone and second headset over the last year. The current headset, something by Plantronics that is meant for my cell and landline really blows. If you twist it just right (or wrong depending on your point of view) the earpiece emits this high pitched, piercing noise that not only I can hear, but so can everyone on the call. Needless to say, during conference calls, I hold wery...wery...still.
I am on the hunt, once again, for another headset. I have been looking at the ones that call centers use. When I worked at BofA as a customer service rep eons ago, I seem to recall them working well. Now I just have to decide whether there is justification for buying one of the new wireless ones. I always think I need a wireless. But to be honest, I plant, and I do mean, root, my backside into my chair and don't move for hours. For those moments when I do get up to go to the bathroom, I think anyone else who calls would prefer to leave a message.
At least I am fairly happy with my phone. It's a Polycom meant for an office. The full-duplex speaker works great. The funny thing is that the handset leaves something to be desired. Didn't think that quality could go down there.
