    They didn't know many in the city could hear their workplace chatter.
     
    People took to social media to describe the R-rated conversation using the hashtags #whoops and #speakerphone.
     
    One tweet said the conversation included talk about oral sex.
     
    Police say some of the remarks in the conversation were inappropriate and the incident is under review.
