VOICEMAIL

Voicemail. . . in today's society, is there really a need for it anymore? I suppose for work there is. But on my cell phone. . . no. Don't leave me a voicemail on my cell that says "call me." I mean really, I'll see that I had a missed call, that it was you, and I'll call you back. Do you really want me to waste my time going to the trouble to retrieve a voicemail that says "call me"? I think not. In the time it takes me to do that, I could be talking to you.

I even changed my voicemail message on my cell once to say "Don't leave me a message. I'll call you back." My mom thought it was short and rude, so I changed it to "leave me a message".

Even for work I question it's validity. I got a voicemail today that said, "I'll send you an e-mail." And what did the e-mail say? "Call me."

NOTE: I don't want any wise guys [you know who you are, Bob] calling me and leaving me voicemails.
