At work, three of our four incoming lines were formerly residential lines, and we have become accustomed to two or three telephone solicitations per line per day, usually robocalls.   Even when one just ignores the line because it isn’t the main number, it is still very annoying and a break in one’s concentration.  

Tuesday, I finally took the time to enter the three lines into the National Do Not Call Registry. I didn’t expect to see any effect for the month or so that the law allows the telemarketers to scrub their lists, but today we had just one  non-legitimate call.  I’ll be very interested to see if this is just a fluke.
