Hah! This perfectly describes a daily phone call with my retired, broke, overly anxious, and medically challenged brother-in-law! Laugh | :laugh:

He's constantly bored and needs to get a lot off of his chest...so there's me, the last person who will still take his phone calls mostly to avoid the dumb voice mails should I choose to ignore him.

Lately I've been wondering if PITA people realize they are a PITA. If so, do they care? Confused | :confused:

I'm not one to call people out of the blue because I need to be entertained. In fact, I was raised to only interrupt people when there was a message to convey.

One of the biggest causes of bugs in my software is interruptions due to unnecessary personal phone calls.
