Don't read Eric Snider while in the middle of a test question writing phone conference with science professors. Especially if you're on speaker phone.

Jon has found the mute button to be a valuable tool on the conference calls he's made from home. Mostly to avoid the sound of screaming children, which at our house, sometimes seems completely unavoidable.
It's not really that bad unless you are wearing a wireless headset and you forget to mute when you go use the restroom. This is based on my experiences listening to the above while on a call. Other interesting noises I've heard include:
-swearing
-burping
-passing gas
-snoring (my favorite)
-other phone calls at the same time
-chewing sounds
-slurping sounds
-construction noises
-blackberry phone static (it sounds more like a loud random beeping and occurs when anyone on a blackberry is not on mute with our conference calling system)
So, compared with that, I'm pretty sure Eric Snider is not so bad.
