Unknown caller / Withheld numbers - Do u answer?

[Malt_Vinegar]

I never answer a number i dont have in my phone or if the number is withheld. My workmates think im nuts, but i dont get wh... Why would i want to answer the phone to someone i dont know, or someone who feels they need to hide their number??

This applies to my home number and my mobile, do you lot do the same?

There are exceptions, like when i have requested a call from a company or im expecting an unknown number for whatever reason.

Am i alone in this?

All you paranoid non-answering folk are probably the same ones who moan "WHY THE HELL DIDN'T CITYLINK/AMTRAK/WHOEVER CALL ME TO SAY THEY WERENT COMING/COULDN'T FIND MY HOUSE"

Try answering the phone and you may find someone on the other end attempting to help you.

This would be one of the situations that i would answer.

Its nothing to do with paranoia, i just cba to speak to people when im busy if I dont know them, or they feel the need to withhold numbers.
