Answer 1

Dang it! I hate those!

Okay, I used to work as an interpreter for those kinds of calls, and I can't tell you HOW MUCH your interpreter hates those calls too! So cussing and swearing and yelling at them doesn't usually help. The interpreter for the call DOES NOT WANT to keep calling you, but, by law, they have to call you because the Deaf person asks them too. (If they're really Deaf, and not just some annoying teenager.)

Best thing to do? Hang up. You can apologize to the interpreter, if you want, but hang up. Get off the line. Do not address the person making the call. It only feeds the flames.

Hang up. I don't know how long they'd keep calling you back for, but it's all you can do, until the prankster realizes their game is not fun anymore.

Honestly... that is NO fun. But feel bad for that interpreter. Spare them having to swear for you, or for the person on the other end. Just hang up, so that conversation ends before it begins to be uncomfortable.

I feel so sorry for you. That is no fun, and there's not much you can do but curse stupid teenagers and their egocentric ways.

:( Have a good day.
