My son gets a second call.  I was travelling back from a business trip and was anxiously awaiting his call before I boarded my connecting flight.  Shortly after I was seated, he called!  Since I was wearing bluetooth headphones, I tried to set down my phone...AND HUNG UP ON HIM!  about 45 seconds later he tried calling back as I was manipulating my phone between screens - as his call came in, I hit the deny button.  Luckily, he was able to get my wife on her lunch hour and was able to talk…

Funny story...well, at least now it is! My son called after 3 weeks at boot camp. I was home, looked at the number, and figured it was a telemarketer so I didn't answer. Refused a second call from the same number (persistent SOB). Went and walked the dog and discovered that I had voicemail. Of course, it was my son who had been trying to call!
Even better, my wife was working and couldn't receive his attempts to contact her either - poor kid, a total washout!
