Maybe now I’ll get some peace! My phone has been ringing all day, every day, all “out of area” and all telling me who I should vote for and why! I was on the verge of having a stroke. It’s not like you can pick up the phone and tell someone off because it’s always a recorded message. If I don’t pick up, they leave it on my answering machine! I am really fed up.
I tried picking up and just listening a few times. I just wanted to get a real person that I could tell off. Finally, a live person answers the phone and launches into his scripted message. Before he can say three words I tell him, in my angriest voice, that I consider these calls harassment, that I have been hounded everyday, all day about who I should vote for and that I do not need anyone telling me who to vote for! He apologized and hung up. I was happy to get a little satisfaction, but I believe these calls should be outlawed, period!
I am now looking forward to a little peace in my house. I hope to be able to sit through a television program, to be able to cook and eat dinner, have a conversation with family, without the phone ringing off the hook.
Whoever wins, whatever their political party and beliefs, I will have won! I will have won my right to the pursuit of happiness and tranquility in my home without having had to rip the phone jacks off the walls!
