I just had the unpleasant experience of watching my personal phone ring, coming from a number that I didn't recognize. When I answered, it was a very, very new provider telling me that some client had given her my unlisted number!! Sadly, this is not the first time it has happened… But it seems to get more and more irritating each time.
What the fuck?!?
I am extremely pissed off! If I wanted everyone in the world to have my number, I would publish it. It doesn't exactly seem like rocket science to me, but…
Let me explain, for those of you who do not understand – if a lady's number is published, it is okay to give it out for reference purposes. BUT - If her number is not published, you came upon it through careful and methodical screening, and it was her decision to give it to you – it is not your place to pass it along to anyone else!!!!!
