While Caller ID obviously hasn’t been around since the beginning of time (or at least, not the advanced technology we know and love today), over the past few years it’s become a whole lot more popular. And that’s due to several factors.
The most obvious reason would surely be the drastic increase in scam and spam calls that are incredibly prevalent no matter where in the world you may be. These scammers are completely ruthless and seem to be constantly finding opportunities to take advantage of us wherever they possibly can. With all things being said, the need for Caller ID has inevitably become more prevalent. We no longer have the same kind of confidence answering our phone, that every call that comes our way has our best interests at heart. At the same time, however, we surely don’t want to miss a call without knowing who it was from and what they could be offering us — again, coming back to Caller ID as a simple solution.
Scam calls aside however, Caller ID has also become more of a necessity for other purposes over the years. In the past decade, it’s become incredibly common to change jobs or even careers every so often. This also means that we’re more likely to be receiving calls from job recruiters and interviewers, and therefore, turning to Caller ID to watch our backs and increase our chances of being prepared for those calls.
And as for the dating world? You’re surely aware of the fact that nowadays, most dating happens either online or on the phone before it moves to the real deal. We don’t need to tell you here how Caller ID comes in handy.
