Yeah they do freak me out, but not a lot.\n\nLiving in s. florida and having been hit by Hurrican Wilma what REALLY freaks me out is when a hurricane is headed this way. I start shaking all over now. We got hit hard and it blew roofs off here. So I am freaked out mostly by the possibility of dying.

Have friends call.  It's not that scary calling a radio station.  I call mine all the time.

I think it must be a mixed bag.  Some times you get the serious calls, others, the weird ones. I'll bet at times you don't even get one.

That is a telemarketer. I get them showing all 0's or 9's. I answered it after getting the call a few times. They will keep calling. just pick it up and say no and hangup.

I have gotten so tired of being angry at telemarketers. It accomplishes nothing and I feel that I have wasted my anger and gotten stressed out for nothing.\n I now have a new way of dealing with telemarketers. FRUSTRATE THEM and it's fun for me. I try to sell them goods and services. I pretend to have Tourrettes Syndrome. I repeat everything they say. I speak in gibberish. I'll act like I'm going to buy the Supreme Package and make them do all the paper work, then hang up and turn the phone off.\n It frustrates them and it's fun for me. Try it, have fun.

I work in telecommunications as a telephone operator. I am not normally a violent person but sometimes I would like to just reach through the phone and choke someone! (Instead of Touch someone) Are people generally stupid?

It's rude and disrespectful.  I will usually tell the person that, later of course since I will hang up right away!\n\nPeople will continue to do that to you as long as you let them.  You need to tell them how you feel and that you don't find it acceptable.

I agree 100% with you on this one. As a matter of fact, just the other night, the electricity went off. I woke up sweating because my A/C went off, went to get the phone in total darkness and remembered that IT NEEDS ELECTRICITY TO WORK, so I couldn't call the electric people, I would just have to wait it out. Looked around for a candle, which I don't buy for necessity and more just looks and the darn thing was burned down because I had used it the other day to make the house smell good...lol!\n\nStarted worrying about an hour later because I had to wake up from work and the alarm was not on (no electricity, remember) so I had to stay awake until it came back on, in the heat, with NO light and no phone!\n\nFor 2 hours I was lost and I didn't like it. But do you think I will be prepared for it next time, probably not :)\n\nGood Question!

HOLY CRAP! THAT SCARED THE HELL OUTTA ME!!!\nLOL!!!!\n\n\n\nI hate you

Me too!!!!  It is sooo strange.  A couple times the power went out.  Now this has happened quite a few times to just us, cause' the circuit breaker was overloaded.\n\nCheck all the clocks, even the microwave, here we go again, 11 11. \n\nI know with the number of times and ways it has happened to me, it could not possibly be coincidence. \n\nI have a roomate.  Everything is quiet.  I have my back to him in a separate room.  All of a sudden he starts screaming and hollering at me.  I thought, Let me guess!  I slowly turned around, the clock behind in front of me says 1111.\n\nI wake up in the middle of the night, see it happens also at 111.  Not until after i get my water or go to the bathroom, i will be walking back to bed, the second i look it has already changed.\n\nI've got stopped watches that say 1111.\n\nI hate to say it, i thought it means death.  no one close to me has died, though.  Or misfortune of some kind.\n\nI'm sorry if i am scaring you.  The person or persons may not be close to us.

I've never told one off, in fact I was one of those "annoying" telemarketers.believe me we don't like calling you anymore then you like talking to us, but please don't be rude most of the time you can tell just by the phone number on your caller ID that it's a telemarketer so just don't answer.Another little tip for people that hate telemarketers is don't pick up your phone and tell us off then hang up, we actually need your permission to remove you from our calling list, and usually have to have you verify your phone number before we can take you off our list.
