NO ONE LIKES speaking on the phone these days. Just send a text or an email, it’s so much simpler. So why oh why do people still insist on leaving voicemails?

Sure, sometimes you need an urgent response so a phone call is merited. But a voicemail? It’s neither urgent, or helpful for anyone involved. In fact, seeing this message on your phone from an unknown number is up there with one of the worst feelings in the world.
