Just Sitting There...

...minding my own business in her home. Her home phone is ram through her cable company, so Caller ID came on the TV. A 216 area code. I asked did she knew anyone in that area code, no. But she answered anyway. I don't know if she was showing off, but apparently the guy on the phone asked her did she own a car and did she know how o drive. Then she started laughing so hard, she started crying. Then, told the guy that she didn't drive, she flew. Apparently he made another joke cause she started laughing even harder. Total time on phone, 5 minutes.

I tried to explain to her that she shouldn't answer any phone calls from any area code that she doesn't know either one, the caller, and two, she doesn't know where the area code is. But she got really upset with me, telling me that her cable company doesn't charge her for long distance calls. I told her if the call, once you answer it charges you initially $30 to answer and then $9 for every minute, your cable company has NO say so about the charges. You ANSWERED the phone. She kept on about not being charged, so I Googled the number for her, and showed her the results. Then she got really angry, wouldn't talk to me.

Only goes to prove, you laugh now, and the cry later.
