I
have often sat down to review the stress that goes with being open. And
every time I find myself coming to the conclusion that ONE BAD APPLE
DON’T SPOIL THE WHOLE BUNCH.
But
trust me, that one bad apple can be so annoyingly distasteful. Not just
because of how the person who called and hung up did it, but the fact
that you must have left something important to take the call.
When
you are just laying around you can pass it off as one of those calls
but when you were busy, it takes a different shade. However, and very
sadly too, when you finally pick a persistent call and the person hangs
up, it just eats you up on very different levels.
I
am one of those artistes who has made his line public. I take as many
calls as I can especially from those who take the pain of sending a text
message first. It’s not just sending a text, but adding their names.
Some will call a number as late as 2am and still tell people you don’t
pick calls; My phone Na call centre? Btw, when they tell those people
you don’t pick calls because you are feeling too big, they edit out the
time they made the call.
In
January, I met and got talking with a lady while waiting for my ride at
EKO Hotel. She said she had a complaint to make about a colleague of
mine. That she called him and he never called her back. So when I saw
the guy I mentioned it. He told me how she calls at odd times and he did
not want to pick her calls because he had sent a message to ask what
she was calling about and she never replied.
Me
wey no like that kind thing, I quickly called her. She said she doesn’t
like sending texts and asked is that why he could not call back or pick
his call, when she didn’t reply his text. I did not know what to say.
There is no one, celebrity or not, who likes being hung up on. Or anyone
who likes being called when they are busy. More so when who ever is
calling is not familiar or already introduced.
I
know some will say, I should zip it. Yet those same people, will in
their own level get irritated by this same thing I am About. Let’s
respect one another & stop taking people for granted. If I irritated
you by this caption, please let me know,so I can save you further
nonsense from me!
