Rejection

Have you ever given someone who asked for your phone number the wrong number so they wouldn't call you? If you did, did you wonder who they might have called when you transposed those digits? Well, you no longer have to annoy people by giving out their number as a decoy.
Someone very smart has developed a Rejection Hotline. I read about it in the latest issue of Washingtonian Magazine. Instead of giving the creepy guy in the bar some hapless person's number so they won't call, you give them this hotline number. When they call, they hear
"Hello, this is not the person you were trying to call. You've reached the Rejection Hotline." It goes on to list possible reasons why you might have been directed to this number. It's hilarious! The Maryland number is 410-347-1488. Their website has over 80 phone numbers to choose from. I guess you couldn't hand out an 800 number at a bar.
Did you know there is now a national "Get Over It" day? They mention it on the recording.
If you call, let me know what you think.
