Not until after the elections. Most of the live callers stopped sometime last week, but the recorded messages continue. Many of them are for local measures and people; perhaps a quarter of them are just reminders to vote. I'm astonished that most of the others are wasting the effort.
Why? Because Oregon is a vote-by-mail state. We all had our ballots a couple weeks back. There are drop boxes in addition to the option of mailing it in. A lot of people - myself among them - have already voted. And yet, they're still calling. I suppose that makes more sense than sending out flyers, anyone who was going to be prompted by the flyers has been, but I want these pre-recorded idiots to get off my phone.
Not picking up inbound calls until after the bloody election.
Other than that it's a good day, though! Grey, rainy, very prettily dim out. Time for me to head off to work (and leave this laptop to defrag its hard drive...unsurprisingly, what a mess!).
