    Probably also didn’t listen to any voice messages, ever. Then complains that he was never contacted.

        I set up my voice mail more then a decade ago, I was told I needed to in order to get a job

        I have regretted this decision ever since. I haven’t checked my voice mail since high school, when it was explained to me. I get voice mails from my parents and from unknown numbers on a weekly basis. I don’t know why my parents leave voice mails - I’ve not once, ever, listened to their voice mails. I’ve informed them that I don’t even know how to access my voicemails at this point

        If I don’t pick up, text me or wait for me to call back. Why would I prefer to hear you ramble off the top of your head when you’re put on the spot? Just send over a post-it worth of text about why you’re calling, and I’ll get back to you faster

        I used to hope for the day my voicemail filled up, I’m now certain it never will. Maybe one day I’ll work up the motivation to change the message to “don’t leave a message, text me if I know you and email me if I don’t”

          Mostly because it’s for business. There are a mix of customers, some want it one way some want it another. We don’t normally use text. So if your equipment is done and you don’t listen to your voice mail. Please don’t complain you weren’t contacted. Hypothetically. Not saying it’s you. But I do get these complaints.
