I've noticed some people saying "kids don't pick up phones anymore" and really, no, we don't.
Kids? Hell, I'm 47 and that's my policy as well. I basically don't answer unsolicited phone calls unless it's my dad or one of a very small number of close friends or family members. And honestly, even that's not guarantee that I will pick up at times.
- erdo 5y agoSame (44) phone calls are for recruiters and marketing spam, so if I'm not currently looking for a job, the phone doesn't get answered
- C19is20 5y agoHow would your dad, and the others mentioned, be considered 'unsolicited '. Possible you mean 'untimely '?
- detaro 5y ago> How would your dad, and the others mentioned, be considered 'unsolicited ' Haven't been asked/invited to call?
- mindcrime 5y agoIf I didn't text/email/etc. and ask you to call me, or we didn't somehow otherwise arrange it in advance, that's "unsolicited" to me. Just being a friend/family member doesn't change that underlying premise. The difference is, if you fall into those categories I might pick up anyway, depending on what I'm doing / how I feel.
