[Rant]: Some idiot who called me 7 times within 15 min on my Cell and leaves no message

[Weak Rant]

So some idiot calls me up 7 times this morning within 15 minutes and doesn't leave any message. I mean once or twice is enough, BUT 7 times....geez, give me a break.

If I am not picking up your phone, there is a reason behind it. You can leave me a message stating who you are and the reason for the call.

[/Weak Rant]

Call came from a number that I dont recognize. Will call back to that number some time later to see who it was.

Thread topic: "My friend almost won a new car!"
summary: "idiot wouldn't pick up his phone."

"The local radio station is having a contest. They've been doing the 100 days of summer contest the same way. Starting in the morning each day, they give away a prize - usually theme park tickets or something like that. All they do is spot a license plate at random and announce that plate on the air. If the owner is listening to their station, they have 15 minutes to call back and win.

Well, I was listening and heard a license plate that I recognized - it was from my friend's car. So, I tried calling him over and over and over. The idiot must not have had his phone on. I was hoping he was just driving through an area without service and I'd catch him. Either that, or he was too busy to answer. If he was just screening his calls and not answering them, then you'd think that he'd realize it was really important by the fifth time I called. Oh well."

You people that call random numbers back to see who they were baffle me. If it was that important they would have left a message. If not...i go about my life. I couldn't care less who it was at that point.

I've had someone call me one night a few times, i told them it was the WRONG NUMBER please don't call this number again.

Fast forward to the next morning, the a$$hole has the nerves to call me again at 7 AM. I answered my phone and told them to never Fvcking call this number again, it is the WRONG NUMBER. They never called me back.

Some people are so idiotic and ignorant.. I have no idea what goes through their minds.

That one line makes a lot of difference. If it is a KNOWN number that is calling me again and again, then I know that something important is up. The Call came from a number that I dont recognize (heck...I know only one person from that area code).

btw, I called back and guy picked up. I asked that someone called me several times this morning and guy responds back "ESPANOL" to which I replied "NO SPANISH". then he hands the phone to some lady who says that they had a wrong number. No Sorry nothing.

Exactly. If someone calls me from a number that I dont recognize and does not leaves a message, I dont care to call him/her back.

I mean why call the person if you are not going to identify yourself ?

BTW, the call was made on my CELL PHONE.

 

[dartworth]

and put it on vibrate...I don't want to hear your stupid ring tone...

 

[zanejohnson]

you are NOT that important...get over yourself.

Or, Topic: "My neighbor's house burned down."
"I saw smoke pouring out of his upstairs window and tried calling him several times, but he just wouldn't answer.

And, you know, it was all the way across the street, so I couldn't be bothered to walk over there to tell him. It's his own fault anyway for not answering his phone. I mean really, if someone calls you six times in 15 minutes, ok, no big deal. But seven? Then it's an emergency."

I had a wrong number wake me up at 5am, the first call I let go to voicemail so they would hear my greeting and know they misdialed. The second call I answered and told them they misdialed, and quickly hung up cutting them off. The third call they left a message, "Sorry I dialed the wrong number."
