When I was younger, my friends had my telephone number. I used to enjoy coming home and chatting to friends on the phone. I loved receiving calls. There was something nice about having that landline handset against my ear.
Nowadays, the tax department, my boss, various Government departments, my bank, etc. have my phone number. It's never good news.
Of course, back in the day I didn't spend 4 hours a day on YouTube and doing stuff on my computer when I get home, so I viewed telephone calls as less of an "interruption".
Phones are what email would look like without spam filters.
Whenever I pick up my phone, it's a robocall trying to sell me either insurance for a car I don't have or political stuff for a district I don't live in. If I could only talk my workplace into sending texts instead of calls, I'd never pick up my phone again.
