Who do you SOUND Like?

In My Humble Opinion
41

When I was 16, one of my first (short-lived) jobs was a late night radio disc jockey.

It seems I have a great voice, and especially over the phone.

When I first got a job at a film studio and women employees called to speak to my boss, I found out later they all made a mad dash to see who that sexy voice belonged to…they were a tad disappointed when they saw me.

So I guess that means I have a good voice…and I can “embellish” to make it sound even better, but usually have to speak slower and I can’t do it first thing in the morning.

I have to admit, when I have to call customer service anywhere, and need something, and women (or some of the guys) hear my voice…well, you would be amazed at how good it works.

I know how it must feel to look like Brad Pitt, because when I want to, I can charm the pants off people (at least on the phone).

A clear and even contralto, usually a combo SoCal/West Colorado vernacular, but patrician when I need it to be.

Unless I’m speaking in public, then it’s all quiet and wavery and I’d really like to die, now.

I sound like Rhoda Morgenstern and Emeril Lagasse had a baby.

Hiya, Ma. BAM!

I was told recently that I sound like Kieth Olbermann, so I’ve been checking out his show since then, and his voice annoys me the same way that hearing recordings of my own voice does. Except he actually sounds smart.

I’ve often been told that I sound like I have a Canadian accent, despite being born and bred and having lived my whole life in and around Boston. Every once in a while, I catch myself saying “aboot” for some strange reason. I also use the word “like” disturbingly often, sometimes in odd places in a sentence.
