Low battery, hurry it up
If there’s anything more annoying than a phone call, I don’t know what it is. Why can’t people just text? It’s so bothersome to receive calls on our phones and have to listen to someone talk for long periods of time. Luckily, there’s a way to avoid having drawn-out conversations with grandparents over the phone.
As soon as you answer, let the person know that your battery is low, and you will have to end the call shortly. That way, they won’t be offended when you hang up on them in the middle of a conversation. Of course, they might try to call back later. To avoid another awkward phone conversation, lie to them via text message instead. You could say something like, “my phone’s speaker doesn’t work; let’s just text.”
