At least with pagers in my old Field Service days, you could decide if the
call was coming from the dispatch center or a local
customer by the area code...

Now with cell phones, voip etc you have the 24x7 fun of getting a phone
call on the floating On Call Emergency Sysadmin Phone
saying, "You too can lower your mortgage payment."

Love those at midnight...

Call screening by caller id doesn't cut it anymore.

Caller bots now call the university number that gets forwarded to the
System Down Cell 24x7.  Ugh.

Let's all hear it for the no longer useful Do Not Call list.   The spammers
and crooks have won again.

Anyone know how to get around this problem?  I also never can tell where
the outsourced night time help desk will call from.
