DEAR MISS MANNERS:

I work graveyards and often receive calls early in the morning from persons who don’t know I sleep during those hours. I must keep the phone on for emergencies as I am on call. Sometimes when people call, they ask, “Did I wake you?”

Saying no is a lie. I have said “Yes, but it’s okay.” The person often apologizes and feels bad. I don’t mean to make them feel bad. And saying something like, “I am glad you called, what’s up?” seems like you are ignoring the person’s question. None of these seem like good responses. What would you suggest?
