Loudly Speaking

My ears were irritated by one of the bank’s clients with loud voice that was audible to everybody’s ears in all corners of the bank. My seat is less than two meters away from her location. She’s transacting to the person in the table in one corner of the bank. They’re talking about insurance but she really speak loudly that it irritates my eardrums. She should have tone down the volume of her voice as it is distracting to the other clients. The newly seated people from the outside can’t help but turn their heads and might be curious on what’s going on. Are you irritated by the loud voice of a person when he or she’s speaking?

Yes, and we can't just request to stop the person because I think we're not on the position to dictate the way they act or behave so let's try to ignore them.

Not really. I tune it out. I understand I'm no better so I can't judge others.

At first it's bearable but then as it's going, it cause an unpleasant sound in my ear. I hope I can always tolerate such noise.

Voice matters to me. I have strong vocal cords also and everybody can hear my whispers. Sigh. Thing is, I have good enunciation and everyone thinks me classy. They call me Inglesera though, which i really don't like. I shift to perfect Tagalog whenever someone comments. But my voice, even if its loud, everybody wants to listen. The woman at the bank must have a squeaky or unpleasant voice.

@ZedSmart I know what you mean - the palengkera monotone. Yup, that's irritating.

No problem if that's the case but you are right, her voice sounds unpleasant and is not soothing.

@ZedSmart Yes, they are. That's why we just make fun of it here instead of being stressed out.

People tend to talk with soft voice here, no one wants that the others know what they are saying.

@ZedSmart Our Banks have small offices were clients go to talk personal matters, but people do not talk loudly here.

It would be better if it's not audible to the whole room.

You say so. Especially that I'm not far from her but I was trying to bear the noise as it would be unethical to ask her to speak a little lower.

Yeah I don't think people in a bank should talk loudly.
