I Contained My Wrath

My phone rang (and woke me up) at just after 7 am this morning.

Early morning phone calls (and late night phone calls) are for emergencies, so I JUMPED out of bed and checked the call display.  Random Ontario number - telemarketing most likely or something along those lines.  I chose to not answer.  For had I chosen to answer, I would not have been polite.

I thought about calling them back but meh.... wide awake as I was I wanted to get back to sleep but that eluded me.

I'm still annoyed.  And yes, I double checked that my number is still on the Do Not Call list.  

I *get* that Ontario is at least three hours ahead but LOOK AT THE NUMBER YOU'RE CALLING AND DON'T WAKE THEM UP AT STUPID O'CLOCK YOU JERK FACES!

 

Edited to add:  Well that's funny.  Not 20 minutes after I posted this another Ontario number called.  I was mad from writing this post so I answered.  It was "Amazon" calling to authorize my purchase of "stupid amount of money" so yeah, scam.  And yes, I'm on a non call list and yes I have a feature added to my landline that's supposed to stop these kinds of calls and yes I'm pretty mad again now.
