I don't mind if it's my family or friends.

I'm now worried that random strangers have your phone number...

I don't worry about that. If I don't know who's calling, I don't answer it. They don't know if I am here or not.
Funny thing - yesterday a friend in Ohio (I live in Illinois) called me. I hadn't heard from her in several years but I recognized the name on the caller I.D. We talked baseball and then reminisced on old times. I enjoyed talking to her, but I did explain my policy on not picking up on a call if the person calling doesn't identify him or herself or is not familiar to me. My exceptions to this policy is the occasional toll-free number that I have left a request to call when the line is free.
