Leaving Messages

Some people get it.. some people don't.

It seems like people are one extreme or the other.

Speaking clearly and repeating phone numbers works for me.

Apparently for Vienna/Diane/Vivienne (I couldn't actually understand her name) it is not necessary to repeat your phone number as long as you say it super fast and smooshed together. Grr.

Re: Leaving Messages

  • I fricken hate repeating myself in a message, so I often don't repeat my phone number, but I usually say the numbers clearly and slowly.  I will say my name a couple of times though, especially if it's work related calls, so they don't get the wrong person when they call back. 

    You are right though, people are either good messengers or they aren't.

  • I hate when people do that. So much so, that when I actually leave message (I tend not, especially with family/friends, I figure they will just see the missed call and call me back, and never listen to the vm) that repeat my name/number and where I am calling from (if it's work related) at least 2 times. I always hate when I have to listen to a message multiple times to get important information.
