Do you get a lot of phone calls? I don't. Usually the only calls I get are from people I have called who are returing a call or telephone solicitations. I wish more people would call me to see how I was doing. I sometimes get the feeling that others don't care.

Hello snowy22315, I hear you and feel the same way. My daughters use facebook or e-mail to contact me or here at work this number. I heard many people are doing away with land line with cell phone use etc... and the computers. Remeber the day where there were payphones every where and now there is hardly any left at all. Thanks and have a great day! Sincerley Unique16

I just wish I wasn't the one that had to initiate all of the phone calls. Yes, we all get busy with our own lives, but how hard is it to pick up a phone and say How are you doing?

Actually, I get very few phone calls... but I'm ok with that. I keep in touch with people online via email, IMs, Skype... but not usually with phone calls. Once in a blue moon, I chat with my sister on the phone. I really prefer to keep social communication online because I don't have a lot of free time and, unless I can run around with the cordless phone and still get things done, I am not good with stopping and spending time on phone calls. Like you mentioned, too, most of the phone calls I get are solicitation. I screen those. Don't even answer them if I can help it.

My sister doesn't have a lot of time either. she usually emails. we can't use skype because of bandwidth issues here.

There are times when I'd like to rip my phone out of the wall. It seems like I always get a ton of calls when I'm busy trying to get something done. I've gotten to the point where I just let the machine get it and call the person back later if it was important. I will admit that I don't like to talk on the phone due to my former line of work and having to be on the phone a lot for it. I will clarify that and say it wasn't telemarketing.

i ocassionally use online chat to talk to my internet friends. It is nice to hear the sound of someone's voice however. I like to do that best.
