Yes.
You raise a good question.
Anger is a perfectly natural emotion - like hunger. However, its display can be inappropriate. The best time to vent anger is when we are alone - go ahead, have a good snarl!
It is impossible to get angry at someone you don't know. How can you be angry with them if you don't know them?
When we get, say, "road-rage" it is anger at something else, that has already occurred that has not been resolved. Rather like a little heat to a kettle that is almost boiling will lift the lid off!
The best approach is to mentally take a couple of steps back, almost as if you are looking down on the scene where you are, as a spectator, then ask yourself what is it that I am really angry about? Solve that and the road rage will turn into laughter at the idiocy of that other driver!

No, it's not weird for you to get angry, but it's not particularly useful, either. You do what you can to protect your privacy, and sometimes things like automatic dialers defeat you. When I get bugged enough by telemarketers and the like, I simply unplug the phone. The few people who may actually have to get in touch with me know how if they need to. I don't have to be a slave to the telephone.
But you are definitely right, there's a lot of nuts out there.

So I even have self assurance you will take corrective action as needed, if needed. My attitude is that of an previous guy, so take that into consideration in case you examine this! sturdy success, and you probably did not piss me off.

I have had the same thing happen to me, you have every right to be angry.
#1:Have his number blocked.
#2:If he calls from another number you have proof that he is harrasing you.
#3:Contact the poliece and let them know you have done everything you can to stop this person from harrasing you, then file a report against him.
This worked for me, hope this helps you.

You can report this to your telephone company. If they can not or will not do something about it, you can report it to the police.
