I just learned the mind palace technique to memorize stuff and wanna put it to use.
It can definitely come in handy speaking on the phone in all sorts of situations.
At a job once, I was on the phone with a customer and was spelling something or giving a string of letters (can’t remember what exactly), and I was having trouble thinking of good words to use. “D as in… duck” not realizing that could’ve sounded like B as in buck or T as in tuck. “F as in…” (don’t say fuck don’t say-) “fu… fun.” “V as in… Vin Diesel.”
Customer was laughing, so I think it went well.
