Pet peeve: contacting someone back

[Anonymous]

I will add, if I call you, and you don't answer and I don't leave a message or text you, don't call me back with, "you called?"

If I wanted you to call me back, I would have left a message

+1. If you are important to me, I’ve given you my number and you can text me.

Sorry, you can only control your own actions; you can’t control other people who have free will. They’re going to do what’s best/easiest for them.

I do not think most people agree w/your take on getting back to someone.

Reason being is that there are so many ways to communicate w/others these days that most people are just not very picky what format someone responds after they reach out - - as long as they get a timely response.

OP, I absolutely agree!

You’re in the minority with that approach. Most people don’t leave voicemails. They expect a call back if they called.

If you call me out if the blue and don’t text why or request a call back -I’m not even going to acknowledge you. I’m going to assume it was a butt dial

If you call me, I will email or text you back. But there was no need for a phone call in the first place.

NP. Disagree. Sometimes people just call…if it’s truly important, you leave a message.

If you call me and don’t leave a voicemail or text, I am not calling you back unless you are my boss or a good friend.

Same. A missed call gets a call back. I also expect a call back if I call you and don't leave a VM. If it wasn't that important I would have sent a text in the first place.

If you don’t leave me a text or VM, you will be waiting for lever.
