RE: Calls to Adventure

in #freewrite4 months ago (edited)

For today I will not read someone else or at least not for the next hours and if I do I will read you again. You made my day and just like you I never feel invited if the phone rings. Not that my phone ever rings the sound and buzzing and the rest is switched off just like notifications to keep the peace and not being disturbed.
Unknown calls are unwanted and those knowing me don't call and I never call them. No SMS either but a small circle where signals are shared and answered if it fits me or them.

Unlike me, you still receive phone calls from humans while my last ones are limited to AI automatic calls, a trail set by scammers, annoying dumb salesmen or fake customer services. I have a hard time dealing with dumb bots and because they lack brains it's pointless to waste time calling.
Send an e-mail.

You made my day, most likely the week.
Thanks for joining out-of-the-box.

Will you add the hashtag #freewrite thank you

Thank you! I honestly thought my post was a dud, so you liking it is a pleasant surprise. Pretty neat.

I've been getting these robocalls as well and the amount of regular people willing even to make a call has descreased significantly. I know, because for a pretty long I stubbornly refused to get a smartphone at all. Apparently even writing an email is too much work these days, which seems weird to me. But hey, what am I going to do!?

Scammers don't even just steal your time, they partially ruin your willingness to interact with strangers at all and cause this kind of low level paranoia, where you assume any person is just trying to get an angle on you. The most recent thing I've been getting is some dude pretending to be DHL over whatsapp telling me about lost packages and having to click these super credible links to make some "arrangements".

Makes me almost sentimental about the times when scammers had to finesse you personally into getting italian wine stocks, or whatever they had going on.

Will also add the #freewrite take immediately.

Edit: Mhm. I was only able to tag the text body. Im terms of the tag bar it's there but invisible, prolly because I was posting to the community. I'm still trying to figure the Site out honestly.
