Phone Privileges...

Whattup??

Being the cellular phone junkie that I am, in the sense of using it, not needing the latest one, I can honestly say that I have over 400 phonebook entries in my phone. That said, I hate when someone says, in their most accusatory tone:

"Why you can't call nobody?" (or a variation of such)

Yes, I do call people (when my minutes are free, after 7pm local time, unless you have Sprint Nextel), but if you feel I haven't called you in a while, here's a thought:

CALL ME. LOL

I am the worst when it comes to calling people back. I can freely admit that. I am a procrastinator and always have the mindset to return voicemails, but typically when I remember, it's late at night when I know 90% of America is asleep. I put it off until the next day, IF I remember, and the cycle continues.

Even still, most people don't realize that I am not at home laying around in my underwear contemplating my next meal. If you call me and don't get me immediately, that may mean a multitude of things, such as not having a job that allows me to freely run my mouth while performing my job duties, or maybe I am sleep, maybe. That's the purpose of the voicemail. In this day and age of dropped calls, there ARE INDEED times when it can be ringing on your end but not ringing on mine. That's the purpose of the voicemail. Then, there are those inopportune times when I just don't want to answer the phone. That's the purpose of voicemail, to stave those particular instances and let me know, "Hey, I need to call so-and-so back." Given that I DO NOT check my missed call log, voicemail is my indication that someone has called me and ACTUALLY WANTS SOMETHING (wow, maybe that's another reason some people don't get calls back...). My logic is, if you didn't leave a voicemail, you most likely didn't want anything in the first place...so don't get mad at me when I don't call back. I don't want to hear your breathing, or you continually asking me "so what's up?" or anything of the sort.

Let it work to your advantage, not your disadvantage. LOL

Aiight, I'm out. Two fingaz!!
