Plus I'm on the phone with someone in Toronto, they don't need to hear someone screaming about that. Plus she needs confirmation that we heard her..
"Tracy! The meeting's been canceled, Tracy!??"
"Hey! I'm on the phone!"
The guy beside me was on the phone too. What's worse now is that the meeting is cancelled she feels that she doesn't have to work in that period of time so she's shuffled off somewhere to talk to other people. The guy beside me has gone to talk to the manager about this while I'm still on the phone.

I work with someone just like that. Loud Lisa. You know those people who don't necessarily mean to be loud, they just really project everything that comes out of their mouth loudly? She does things like you just described, and then the rest of the time she sits in her office (2 down from mine), and does the loud, long-drawn-out yawn "YAWN*AN*AN*AN*", talks to herself, laughs at her own jokes, literally narrates her navigation and editing of an excel spreadsheet "You go there, and you plus C4 equals you!". I have to close my door when she's on the phone. I know who her doctor is and the reason for her last appointment, I know who her lawyer is. I know that her niece & nephew live in Burlington, ON. I know the whole story of her commute to work five minutes after she arrives because she broadcasts it to everyone. She just speaks SO loudly, even about personal stuff. She's one of those people who have no inside voice.
