If A Real Person Can't Call Me Then I Don't Need To Talk To You!

It really gets under my skin how bill collectors and telemarketers call you then they either say, "Hang on for the next available operator" or "Call 888-999-5555 to talk to someone". Excuse me, but if you want to talk to me then have a REAL PERSON call me! I'm sorry for ranting about this, but doesn't this stuff really get under your skin? Do you get tired of the automated phone calls you receive?

I agree. It can't be that important or they would have a real person call.

I have been receiving calls from a company that claims to be a debt collection agency, it is a recording, they do not say who they are calling, just to call this toll free number. Gee, like I a really going to call back. Now, when I see the number I do not answer the call. They were calling two to three times a day, now they call about every other week.

I think that is very annoying. As a matter of fact, those annoying phone calls is one of the main reasons that I have caller ID. If I look at the phone and it shows a number that I do not know or is not a local number, I just don't bother answering the phone. I feel that it is a little less annoying to hear the phone ring than to answer and have an automated voice recording on the other end.

I get these to, I can't stand them ether. I used to stand there and wait until someone came on the line, but anymore as soon as I know it's a recording I just hang up.
