minus-squaremannycalavera@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down2·7 months agoWho calls people these days? Apart from taxi drivers.
minus-squarehperrin@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16·edit-27 months agoDoctors, pharmacies, basically anyone in the medical industry. Businessmen, people with sales jobs, basically anyone who needs to coordinate shipping, receiving, transactions, at the scale of a large business. Anyone in the military. Lots of government offices, courts, basically all of the executive and judicial offices and administrations for every government. Should I go on?
minus-squaremannycalavera@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·edit-27 months agoThanks, if you hadn’t guessed I wasn’t being serious. Maybe I should have /s’d?
minus-squarehperrin@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·7 months agoAh, that didn’t come across. No worries. :)
minus-squareBearOfaTime@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·7 months agoI’ll give you the upvote, I got the sarcasm with a tinge of truth there. I only take scheduled calls anymore. Even for work (for the most part), because my work schedule is so full. Yet Another Call Blocker has been fantastic for me, even on a non-rooted phone. Very configurable, let’s your contacts ring through (if you choose). https://gitlab.com/xynngh/YetAnotherCallBlocker
minus-squaremannycalavera@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·7 months agoVery cool, I have been relying on the Pixel dialer to screen calls but I ended up just blocking them most of the time. I’ll check this out thanks 👍.
minus-squareWahots@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down1·7 months agoApartment complexes, package deliveries, medical shit, people locked out of your house who need to get in to feed pets, your neighbors to shut off the water when your pipes burst when you are on vacation, etc.
minus-squareJWBananas@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down2·7 months agoHuman beings who want to speak with other human beings. I know. It can seem like a strange concept to some people. It’s strange to me that they find it strange.
minus-squaremannycalavera@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·7 months agoWow sarcasm is truly dead on the internet. 😂 Mate, I wasn’t exactly being serious but thanks for the effort you put into your reply 👍.
minus-squarecm0002@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down5·7 months ago Apart from taxi drivers. Man, fuck taxis. Uber/Lyft have their issues, but I will NEVER go back to taxis even if Uber/Lyft becomes more expensive than a taxi.
