    Sure, but how is it embarrassing for whoever let them through? Or how much time really is wasted, it takes like a second to press the button

      Context switching, if it ends up being an irrelevant phone call even if it’s short, it can throw off your flow. It’s embarrassing because they were tricked into letting through a bad call. Are you like an alien trying to understand humanity or something?

        I wouldn’t call it tricking, more like deceiving with a clear intent to be a nuisance to everyone involved. Presumably even the scientist down the line was deceived into talking to them before inevitably hanging up. Nothing embarrassing about that. But yeah I don’t disagree with the flow thing, that sucks but again it’s no ones fault but the callers.

        You say that as a joke (?) but this honestly is my lemmy-experience so far in a nutshell lol.
