[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 669163, member: 1963"] Ack! My phone # is listed with the city emergency services, which is nice as i get automated messages about things like public service outages. What isn't so nice is that apparently my phone # was shared with the local elementary school district. This means that this AM I got a phone call at 5:30 informing that school would be starting fifteen minutes late due to something to do with a meeting related to transportation. I'm not sure quite what as i was still half asleep and trying to stifle a panic attack as when the phone rings at that ungodly hour, my conditioned response tells me it isn't good news. I'll have to call the school district tomorrow to get my name and number taken off the call list. I can only imagine the calls I'll be getting come winter, though in WI they tend to be very sparing with snow days, since we get so much of the stuff. CB, I am rather surprised, since it sounds like you work for a larger district, that you haven't gone over to an automated system for at least initial contacts. I am also surprised that fluency in Spanish isn't a requirement of your job, given what, from what you've written in the past, seems to be a high Hispanic population in your district. [/QUOTE]
