The Workplace

[Alvin Walton]

We have a loudspeaker system at work. (I work in a housing products factory) If you dial 77 you can speak directly into the loudspeaker system so you can page people. Often times people will do it accidentally or page someone and not hang up the phone properly, then you get to listen to office conversations and people singing to themselves over the loudspeaker. One day I heard a guy singing nursery rhymes to himself. If you are in the front office you cannot hear the loudspeakers out in the plant so you have no idea you are live.
