  • Here’s my tip, for Lemmy hopefully it will never get so popular as to not work any more.

    Answer the phone for unknown numbers, don’t say a g-d thing, just listen. Let them address you first.

    If they ask for you by name go ahead and respond, if they call back answer with a generic “hi” greeting, don’t let them have your voice or name before you know who they are and what their business is.

    A robot will mark your number as a “dead line” and not call you again.

    A person will either be trying to reach you (and know who you are) or trying to reach a living person, and not waste their time with an unresponsive line.
