Angry Please listen out before transmitting!

Lately I have noticed that with increasing frequency people don't listen out anymore before they transmit!.

It happens across the globe and to every airline. Not only does it increase the workload of controllers and pilots, as transmissions have to be repeated, it is also very annoying.

I would like to ask my fellow colleagues to listen out for 5 to 10 seconds before transmitting after a frequency change.

Rant over.
