I get A LOT of calls from 800/888 numbers, both on my cell phone and my home phone. I know I need to do the blocking thing, but it keeps slipping my mind (or I just get too damn lazy to do anything about it).
Of course, a few of those 800/888 callers are from collections (oops :x) but the vast majority are telemarketers. Anyway, I make it a point to NEVER answer a call coming from an 800/888 number. Any of you avoid certain calls on a regular basis? |

I get weird 800 numbers that call me. I also get calls from Las Vegas and Pheonix... which is just weird.
A while ago, I had to call the people who manage all the phones for the jails and prisons across the US, because someone from the county jail kept calling my cell phone and when I would pick up it would disconnect. They called at really weird hours, too. |
