checking.
if one does not answer the robo automatically ‘hangs up’ from what have observed ... numbers come up prior to ‘hang up’ from what have observed ... is this also happening to you?
bookmarking for later ... dang ... better half yelled ‘take a shower’ and better half ‘sounds series and hugh’
It’s Ed McMahon calling from Publisher’s Whatchamacallit to tell you you’re almost a winner.
From the Dyer-Ives Foundation’s 2003 publication “New Neighbors, New Opportunities: Immigrants and Refugees in Grand Rapids” (racialequalitytools.org), comes this:
“In 2003-2004, from 150 to 250 Somali Bantus are expected to resettle in West Michigan, with the first families having arrived in June 2003. This resettlement will most likely involve many large extended families and, in some cases, networks of families from the same village.”
So there was an influx 10 years ago. Who knows how much the population has exploded since then?
It happens constantly.
Who wants to call that hellhole...?
LOL
That is one of the better parodies I have seen.
Bingo!
Why is that guy talking to Jake at 3:00AM?
Because the call was from Benghazi & Hillary and Obama wouldn't answer.
Well done!
ROFL
I suspect it’s ET and the call got misrouted.
Let’s say you are calling your house from a big office building. There are 5000 people in there, each with a direct line. Well, you won’t have 5000 lines coming in. Not everyone is on the phone at once. So you buy big T-1 lines that can handle 24 calls at once. Each one of those trunk lines has an identifier, and since they are just the “pipeline” there is no phone number associated with them.
A lot of times the phone techs in call centers will not change the ID on the outbound end, so they can identify the trunk usage. If it was a telemarketing call they know people won’t be calling them back, so they don’t care what appears on their caller ID.
I would suggest that any long string of numbers that is not easily identified as a phone number is a crap call.
Think of it as looking at a piece of mail who’s return address you don’t recognize, but it has a bulk mail stamp on it. 99.9% of the time it’s junk mail.
I got that one and laughed. We hadn’t had a Microsoft computer in the house for six years.
My latest daily pain in the ass are the solar companies.
Thanks for explaining.
I never answer calls if they don’t identify themselves either by the name on the caller ID or by leaving a message when voice mail comes on. I pay for a phone so I can have ease of communication NOT so someone can use it to sell me something.
I hardly ever answer a phone unless its my wife. I had a call returned from a job application the other day. I didnt recognize the number, so I blew it off. Thank God they left a message!
What’s the Giant’s phone number?
fee fi fo, fi fo, fi fo
heh.
