Only sometimes?

I've been taken to task, even ridiculed, for my habit of keeping my cell phone turned off until
I'm ready to use it (I don't even give that number out except to a handful of close friends). I even had an employer demand I keep it turned on until I asked if he was going to pay my cell phone bill (that stopped that nonsense). I'm about to yank my landline because of unsolicited calls, mostly political and surveys (no, the Do-Not-Call list hasn't been working) interrupting whatever it is I'm doing at the time. I quit giving that number out in an attempt to curb the number of calls but it has only slightly reduced them.
