How Long Is Too Long To Be Kept On Hold? by StephenP(m): 12:32am On Jul 05, 2008
Imagine this: You call someone you like, and after about 30 seconds the person says "Can you please hold? I've got someone else on the other line." You say sure and you're kept on hold. How long would you be kept on hold, waiting for the person to end the call with the other caller and get back at you, before you hang up?

if you know she just cant help to be away for that moment then stay as long as she wants you to. Not so much of a sacrifice.
Its a matter of good judgement, if you can sense she doesnt really care then just cut the phone and do something else.

Re: How Long Is Too Long To Be Kept On Hold? by Nobody: 10:34pm On Jul 05, 2008
if they're the ones calling me, they can take as long as they like. i'll just put my phone on speaker and find something to distract my self after a minute.

if i called, i'm going to hang up and call back. no time (or credit) wasting grin grin
