I recently bought a Plantronics CS70 head set that connects to my office phone. I used to hate making and receiving calls from the office. Tethered to my desk is not appealing.

But now I actually enjoy phone calls. Generally, I pace around the office with my squishy ball in hand, bouncing it around – off the ground, off walls – while negotiating deals, answering support questions, yelling at people, getting yelled at by others, talking to my mom, etc.

Today I even made it to the bathroom while trying to help a customer troubleshoot a problem. Talk about multitasking :-)

I was so inspired I felt compelled to write about it. My life would be complete if I could make it to the bathroom while deep in discussion with a customer AND to the coffee shop downstairs to get my afternoon iced coffee. Unfortunately, the coffee shop is still out of reach.

But if Plantronics, or anyone, can increase the distance between base station and headset by about another 300 feet, I would buy that product. Maybe it already exists.

Anyway, today’s been really positive so far for me and I thought you should all know that. It’s really little things that make my tail wag.
