I need to put the fail in another basket-

Since December 5th at 8:54pm, I have gotten SEVENTEEN [17] calls from this one number. I have no idea who it is, I answered it once and thought it might have been my sister going 'Hellooooooooo', though I had no idea what phone she had. They called back to back to back and I rejected it every time. No telemarketer calls you at 10pm, since I'm sure it's quite illegal. And then. THEN. Final straw.

They woke me up at 7am this morning.

Oh. HELL no. I answered it, no response. Blocked that number SO FAST. But my phone shows they called at 7:02, THRICE at 7:04, 7:05, TWICE at 7:06, 7:07, 7:08, 7:09, 7:27. Who the hell DOES that at seven o'clock in the morning? And I was so pissed I couldn't even go back to sleep for a few hours. I don't know if I can report this or not. If I can, I would, just to teach the little bastards on the other end a lesson. I just don't know how to go about it aside from popping up at the local police station [which I don't know where it is. State Police station is around the corner, but they don't handle those types of things, I don't think.]

Then add on that my Grandfather is a lying liar who lies and is trying to get attention by calling other people liars [I went out and treated my friends to the movies with your debit card? Oh. I wish. I WISH.] then the day was just fail. Confronted him with it today, and he was like, 'I didn't say that D8' and I'm like, 'What, so my mother lied?', 'Well, [insert Uncle's name here]' and I'm like, Oh bullshit. He hasn't even talked to my mother since then. Talk about a slap to the face.

Only good point. My boss changed the schedule, so instead of closing with her today, I don't have to see her AT ALL. That's the best present of all.

EDIT: They called AGAIN. At 5:45 and 5:46. Seriously. WTF.

Did you answer it?

[kageisuke.livejournal.com]

Did you actually read what I wrote. =| I said I answered it twice.

[nunganunga-k-o.livejournal.com]

What I meant was, did they say anything?

I know you said something about Hellooooo but I wasn't sure if you were saying that's what was said or saying that your sister says that. :|

[kageisuke.livejournal.com]

Yeah, when I answered it the first time, I was like, 'Hello, __ speaking' like I normally do if I don't know who'se calling. They went 'Hellooooooo' and I was like, 'What do you want Chibi D<' and then realized it wasn't her. 8| They could have at least told a corny 'Is your refrigerator running' joke.

Would that have made it betttttter?

Also, is this your cell or house phone? :|a

[kageisuke.livejournal.com]

Yes. I would have at least gone, 'Wooooow, kickin' it old school huh?' *hangs up; never answers it again and blocks immediately*

Cell. Which makes it worse. I never answer the house phone. \o No one even has that number who needs to get in contact with me. =3= Except family, and even they don't call me on it.

*runs off to work*

Argh I hate that! Do they even bother talking at all or just call and nobody's there when you answer? You can register both your home and cell with the National Do Not Call Registry: https://www.donotcall.gov/default.aspx or http://www.ftc.gov/donotcall You can also file a complaint at that site. Charities, debt collectors and political organizations are exempt. You can also try a reverse number look-up at anywho.com. you might be able to figure out who it is. Good luck.

Aside from the first time where the person went 'Hellooooooo' in a mocking way that makes me think it's a prank call, they haven't said anything when I actually answer the phone.

I'm already on the Do Not Call list. I put it in months ago for both my home and cell so that should have went through by now. Because of the times they called, I don't think it's a telemarketer either. They have to call between 8 and 8, I believe. And all the calls have been outside of that range. I tried the reverse number look-up and nothing comes up either. I'm going by the station tomorrow to see about my options.
