Torion Nozza's Guide to Avoiding Awkward Phone Calls

"Hello, is this Torion Nozza? Oh, I'm calling from..."
Awkward.
"Uh, yes, it is. What can I do for you?"
So awkward.
"We're calling to tell you that..."
Oh, come on!
If you're anything like me, Torion Nozza, you've had your fair share of awkward phone calls. Maybe you've called the wrong number. Maybe you've accidentally dialed your ex. Or maybe you've been called by a telemarketer at the worst possible time.
Whatever the reason, awkward phone calls are the worst. They're like a social minefield, and you never know when you're going to step on one.
But don't worry, Torion Nozza is here to help. I've compiled a list of my top tips for avoiding awkward phone calls.
1. Double-check the number before you dial.
This seems like a no-brainer, but you'd be surprised how many times people call the wrong number. If you're not sure, take a second to double-check the number before you hit the call button.
2. If you call the wrong number, apologize and hang up.
Don't try to make small talk or explain yourself. Just say, "Sorry, I dialed the wrong number," and hang up.
3. If you accidentally dial your ex, don't say anything.
Just hang up. Trust me, it's better than trying to explain yourself.
4. If you're called by a telemarketer, be polite but firm.
Say, "I'm not interested, thank you," and hang up. Don't get into a long conversation, and don't feel obligated to be nice. Telemarketers are paid to be annoying, so don't let them get to you.
5. If you're feeling awkward, just be honest.
Say, "I'm feeling a little awkward right now." This will break the ice and make the other person feel more comfortable.
6. If all else fails, just laugh.
Laughter is a great way to defuse awkward situations. Just laugh it off and say, "Well, that was awkward."
Bonus Tip:
If you're really worried about making awkward phone calls, you can always use a VoIP service like Skype or Google Voice. This way, you can use a fake number and avoid having to give out your real one.

Awkward phone calls are a part of life, but they don't have to be the end of the world. By following these tips, you can avoid awkward phone calls and make your life a little bit easier.
