WOMEN spend nearly five years of their working lives on the phone, a survey showed yesterday.

Daily Record

They make or receive a staggering 288,000 calls, compared with 277,000 for men.

That means the average woman spends 4.75 years on the phone - a year and a half longer than blokes.

Communications firm Toucan surveyed 3000 people about phone usage and found females live up to their reputation for talking for hours.

The survey showed the average Brit makes or receives 283,126 calls in their working life Of those, 155,928 will be work-related and 127,199 will be personal.

We spend an average of 10 minutes on each personal call and 4.8 minutes on work-related matters.
