I've been getting these random phone calls mostly at work, but at other odd hours of the day, and I found this site that can look up phone numbers, because I was curious. You all know my past posts with my problems at work. Almost all of the numbers I knew were from people (not the automated ad things) were from my co workers. They never said anything, or left a message. I work again tomorrow, and was thinking of saying, hey I know what's going on it stops now. But is that a bad idea? Or is it so wing I can go to my boss for? If I get the call at work, I look to see who it is but don't pick up, I don't know what the object here is, but isn't this harassment?

i know it feels like harassment! from your co-workers, that is bizarre. i would contemplate any action for a while, especially if it involves the bosses,, cause some things you can't take back.
i'm getting hang-up calls, and where i live we don't have caller ID... so it's making me crazy~ i think it's kids harassing me... it's truly annoying. perhaps you could practice getting real casual, and then ask one of the co-workers what they called about ? i dunno~ best wishes~ Gus

I know, at my work, there was a 'weird Emails', email floating around. I forget the gist of it. Could address, it like that, through distribution list, cc'ing bosses/hr. Nothing accusatory, facts, and address being careful how we sync our address books with Web based companies, like google/yahoo, etc?
Hope your random calls, halt. Sent from my LG-MS910 using Tapatalk 2 |

Would *69 work? It is ad hoc caller id on a land line. That is bizarre. I would start making a written record of when and the numbers. I wouldn't try to approach them or you boss without it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

I figured this time I'd try blocking the latest annoying caller since it wasn't my boss and not tell anyone and see what the reaction is next time they "accidentally" call.

Are they trying to forward calls to you, as part of your duties? I would ask them that. Otherwise they could be costing the company money, if they are making "outside" calls to you for no reason.

I guess I don't get what is going on. Someone at work is calling you from work? I don't see the point. How is it they don't have a work number you recognize as coming from your own office? I would be inclined to think my work's phone service has something wrong with it, approach it like that. I know my home phone rings a lot after there has been a call and there will be no one there. I know my phone is broken.

I work outside, and the way it happens I feel like its a not so friendly way of seeing if I have my cell phone with me, like its a bad thing. I'm not leaving it anyplace other than with me. I never turn it off unless it's a meeting or something like. The real issue though is I never gave my phone number to this coworker, and why are they using a phone number I never gave them.

Get a google voice number! Give that as your "new" personal contact info. You map the google voice number so it forwards to your cel. Then when you have identified the callers number google voice will let you block them or (better yet) label them as spam. It might be hard to get the old cel out of circulation at work but it could work. I give my clients a google voice number. Completely free and very sweet.
