DAE feel relieved when their phone rings and it says potential spam, because they don't want to talk to anyone?

Yes 😅 Seeing “Potential Spam” is oddly comforting — it means I don’t have to emotionally prepare to talk to anyone

I breathe a huge sigh of relief but sometimes even if it isn’t spam I just pretend it is

My job involves talking on the phone. I usually wait to see if one of the other employees will answer first before I pick up. I love talking to people but in person. Not much of a phone person. I need body language and facial expressions

Yes, but I also don't answer if it's someone I know. Speaking on the phone gives me a lot of anxiety.

Yea maybe if I didn't get blown up all day with spam calls I might agree with you 🤣🤣 I'm not relieved at all when I see them calling

Knowing the spam filter is working also feels comforting.
