Seriously, are these people in the movies. I have hardly ever had a conversation that didn't end in bye, bye now, something like that...............Only on TV and movies do I see people just hang up. That never makes sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching a tv show a couple weeks ago. One of the main characters, a federal agent calls a field office. Doesn’t say hi, doesn’t even say who she is, just gets right into “give me this info”. And the person on the other end of the call gives it to her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Guy Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Not sure when I started saying it, but I end my conversations with "bye now". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would really weird me out...'goodbye'. Like jesus dude, we're ending our conversation not dying of cancer. I'd settle for toodle-oo or even later gator...literally anything but 'goodbye'. Goodbye. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greybeard Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 I either say Goodbye or CYA. If the other person never says anything I assume the conversation is still going and wait. How else could you tell? Maybe it is time to bring back "Roger, Over and Out." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its never over and out. over means response is expected. Out is end of communication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoBills808 Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Ha. 'Goodbye'. I guarantee none of you actually say the entire word at the end of your phone call. Weirdos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
