The guy is getting roasted in the comments too, especially about being unfair to NDs

    Does this guy not understand that 99% of calls from unknown numbers are spam? If he picks the person who always answers, he’s gonna be disappointed when they’re spending more time answering spam calls than doing intern work.

      How many spam calls are y’all getting? I get maybe 2-3 per year and that’s only if you count telemarketers from phone companies, who I deliberately answer because that’s the only way to get cheap phone service in this fucked up economic system.

      I literally cannot remember the last time I got an actual spam call from some robot call center pushing a scam.

        I don’t know how you achieved this magic, but I’m envious. Just checked and I had seven spam calls yesterday and nine the day before. iOS finally adding call screening has legit changed my life

          Might be a local difference since I’m in Finland. There was a period a few years ago where robot spam calls from foreign numbers were pretty common (as in, maybe one every couple of months), but the phone companies implemented some new system to block those and they haven’t really been a problem since.
