Oh and one more thing...
...I talk on the phone ALL DAY _every_ workday.
There are times I don't want to talk on the phone.
This isn't because I'm angry at you.
This isn't because I don't want a connection with you.
This isn't because I don't want to hear what's going on in your life.
It's because I spend day after day with people with problems in my ear. I need to rest my ears.
So please don't call me more than once every week or two.
This includes friends.
This includes relatives.
This includes everybody.
Please read up on introverts.
Frankly I'm not getting any personal recharge time here and at some point I'm going to blow at you all if you don't back off.
