please leave a message if you are calling during the day, we are here and will pick up. We've been getting marketing and campaign calls, and I am no longer picking up anything that reads "Unknown caller" or "Blocked call". So if you know your work number comes up that way, please be patient, as if we are not immediately available, we will call you back.
Thanks!
This is just an elaborate scheme to dodge me, isn't it?
Yes. :ass:
does this include heavy breathers and dirty talkers?????

Really?!, I can't believe it, you would think for sure businesses should be able to block telemarketing calls. Who wants the cable company calling to solicit your employees during work hours?
That's nuts
The do not call system is almost fatally flawed. If you call a bank to ask about something they can then call you for 90 days whether you are on the list or not. Call Sears to find out what the store hours are and you can get calls from them about windows for 90 days. Any business you contact has the right to call you for a 90 day period from that contact. If you have a credit card with bank X then bank X is free to call you anytime. Like I said, fatally flawed. The only real answer is to have a lot of fun with the shmuck on the other end, you have to make it worth your while in entertainment.
If I had the time, I might be so inclined to amuse myself, but alas, time is a commodity that is woefully short this time of year. ;)

I get surprisingly few calls since adding our number to the "Do not call" list, but I do still get calls from various police organizations raising money.
With male teenager sons driving and one away at college my heart skips every time they call and say this is Sgt. So and So. :ahhh:
I'd buy them a ten year annuity to pay them off if they'd promise never to call again.
Barb............I'll add you to my list. :spank:

I had heard about the long Wisconsin winters, but I had no idea the effect it has on some people! :ahhh:
