I tend to cradle the telephone handset between my ear and shoulder - at the same time use the keyboard and take notes. Bottom line - don't cradle the telephone between your ear and your shoulder. It's tough on both your neck and your ear! 
| Hand hold- For short calls hold the handset with your hand.

- DO NOT cradle it between your ear and shoulder!
- NOTE: phone shoulder cradles may seem like a good idea; but you still end up with static out-of-neutral head and neck position.

Headset or speaker phone - For longer calls and when you need to take notes (handwritten or at the keyboard) consider use of a hands-free headset.

- Another option may be to use a speaker phone - this may not be suitable based on noise levels.
| Hand hold the telephone handset. Add a headset. Go to Products to order. Use the speaker phone option. |
