Telephone Tip: "Do Not Answer" |
You've been meeting folk but there are those who you'd rather
avoid, and you delete them from your phone. Later, they call and
you answer because the number looks familiar: maybe it is a family
or coworker! Awkwardness ensues.
Solution? Keep the number, but change the name to "Do not Answer"
-- especially if you may have a tendency to get drunk /
lonely.
I do not actually use this strategy, but I read it a couple years
ago and its re-telling was recently well-received, so I thought I'd
share.
