What’s your cut off time for phone calls?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
At my home, most evenings during the week are spent watching television.
Every once in a while the phone rings, but it’s usually sales. Every once in a while it’s a sales call around 8:45 p.m., which pushes the time boundary for me. My personal rule is: I don’t call anyone, unless it’s an emergency, past 9 p.m.
I also don’t call before 9 a.m. So, when my phone rings around 10”ish at night,” it makes my heart skip a few beats. I look at the caller ID and make sure it’s not a relative and then take a deep sigh of relief, when it’s not.
I’ve told my daughter who is at college about this time issue so she knows. Don’t even get me started about the phone ringing at 2 a.m. and it’s a wrong number. Those calls usually make me jump out of bed.
Some folks have no problem receiving calls up until 11 p.m. and later, and that works for them. What about you? Do you have a cutoff time for making phone calls in the evening or in the morning?
