Default Re: ANyone else dislike phones? No flaming please

If you're talking about telephones in general, yeah I'm with you on that.

I used to have an aversion to answering the phone. Then, I spent a year working as a tech support/phone answerer. After that, I had a full-blown telephobia.

In the decades since, I've just got back to being largely annoyed by phones. My officemates will tell you that whenever the phone rings here in the office, I'm likely to scream "Leave me the hell alone!!!" before answering.

My solution is to give no one my phone number, and when I'm home, not bother answering if I'm not in the mood. And to harass the crap out of anyone who tries to phone spam me.
