Unknown callers

Don't you hate answering the phone when the numbers blink on your screen instead of a familiar name? Whenever my cell starts to ring I get a shot of excitement, maybe someone interesting is calling me, but when I glance down and see it is a random number 123.456.7890, I cringe. It could be a potential job offer, or it could be my ex, it could be a long lost friend, or it could be a salesperson, or worse yet, Sallie Mae.

I admit it, I am tens of thousands of dollars in debt and I just can't pay the $1,000 bills coming in monthly. I pay what I can and that is the end. It keeps the collection agency away, but the calls keep on coming. This is a common situation that people in their twenties are facing. 

Note to loan companies, calling won't get you your money, but helping me find a job will.
