So, well, I would like to talk about one day I answered a phone call from unknown number while I was in a cafe with my maid at circle. I was a cozy cafe that from time to time I visit and I sitting at a corner table more often than not enjoying a coffee and I bombarded with my friends with questions when my phone rang. One thing I never expected was the number not saved in my contacts but out of curiosity finally I decided to pick up when I answered the person on the other and introduce themselves as someone from language academy. They started to give general information about language course course they were offering. To be perfect honest I highly interested in language companies. I politely listened for a few seconds and I tell in future I will apply to their course. At the end of the conversation I said thank you for your detailed information and I hung up quite quickly. Of course I was a little bit surprised especially when I was in a public place and I was not really satisfied with the atmosphere. I felt a little awkward after phone rang I felt happy because it wasn’t a long conversation and I could get back to enjoying my time with my close friends. I tried to stay calm and respond politely. This experience gave me how we have to deal with inchapsions in public locations especially when we don’t have our hoos on the other end of the line.
