Sorry if we don't pick up...

...But we are definitely screening calls these days! Today, for instance, we received EIGHT political calls between 5:00 and 6:30. Seriously?!? And who on earth thinks that a pre-recorded mesage is going to influence anyone - I hang up the minute I hear that little click signaling the message is about to start.

And one last rant. I am truly thankful that my hubby has a job, but it happens to be union. And it really, really burns me up that our dollars are being spent on mailings and the aforementioned phone calls supporting Mr. O.

Blech.

That is not the way union dollars should be spent...I haven't gotten any of those calls. Don't think we are in a contested area...

Yeah, our Caller ID is getting a workout lately! We're union too, and we got one mailing for a local politician that irritated me as well.
