When you leave voicemail messages....

[princesa]

do you leave your name and number?

I hate those people who are like -hey its me blah blah
Who is me?? leave your freaken name, it pisses me off

If im calling friends and i know they have my number i only leave my name. If im calling someone relatively new or clients; i leave both name and number. I think its the right thing to do.

I always just say, hey (insert name), it's me....blah blah and she knows who it is cause she recognizes my voice and my name comes up as a missed call etc. But yeah if its someone new, name and number for sure.

Mine just says, "Hi you've reached Mr. and Mrs. Pin please leave a message."

[princesa]

you never leave a message?
I hate that too- I wonder what was the reason they called

I don't return calls if they don't leave a message
i think maybe it was nothing important

unless its my mom

I looooooove Seinfeld. I never get tired of watching the reruns.

you know what it is
I met this guy a few months ago. When I was being introduced to him, i got distracted and i didn't catch his name. We exchanged numbers and started talking. So I met him again 3 days ago. We had coffee and i still don't know his name. Isn't that horrible lol
I feel embarrased asking him. And everytime he calls he is like hey its me.

 

[princesa]

ohh and that tag word---you fucker, show your face

ok thats better

What pisses me off even more is when I get hang up messages on my work voicemail. My outgoing message is a good twenty seconds long, so that means that whoever was calling waits for the phone to ring 4 times, then waits another 20 seconds to hear my outgoing message, then hangs up AFTER the beep.

Fuckers.

That's pretty funny, but trust me I'm really bad with names.
You either need to trick him into telling you his name or just come out and be honest about it. Maybe ask him for his e-mail and hopefully his name would be in addy. When I was on vacation in Greece on three separate occasions I started speaking to people and not just did I not remember their names i didn't even remember meeting them so I'd reintroduce myself and they'd look at me like I was crazy. Pretty embarassing...

lolol There is no way i could tell him the truth. I've spoken to him sooo many times lol. It doesn't look right. I would be upset if someone forgot my name. I have his email but his name is not on it. I might ask him to see his school ID, He is in med school at NYU. I think thats an idea...

Im bad with names. Really bad.

What I do is take out my phone and say "I just want to make sure I spelled it correctly. How do you spell your name?"

Works like a charm. If the response is some normal name like "Sarah" my reply would be "Yeah, I didnt know if it had an H or not at the end."

 

[princesa]

LOL, you like it! Just admit it.

No i don't.

Im mad at you right now....

but

If you wrote another message saying you are sorry-that would make me very happy

 

[chris302001]

no i don't.

[nefertiti]

Depends on who I'm calling...friends, I'll leave a name. New people or work people, name and number. Boyfriend, "Hey you...(insert message)". He'll know it's me just from the "hey you"

 

[Dial_tone]

I'm not sure it really matters. Sometimes I have to answer the phone at work. Every day some ass nugget calls up and says:

them: "hello. somebody called me from this number. I'm just calling back"
me: do you know who it was?
them: no
me: well if they didn't leave their name it was probably a wrong number

The truth is whoever called did leave a message. Your dumb shit ass was just too lazy to actually listen to it before calling back. Should I put your stupid ass on hold while I page the entire fucking company to find out who called Joe Blow? No. I'm just gonna play dumb and MAKE you go back and check that damn message like the person intended. They might have been telling you there's no need to call.

I don't do voicemail

If I feel like fucking with someone I leave long ass messages telling them all about my likes and dislikes.. and such.. actually I never do this, but hate when peeps do this to me,

 

[chris302001]

my voice mail message.........

 

[Smurfy]

sometimes when i call my parents house and get their voicemail i just say HI and then i hang up. im all about brevity

 

[-Ariel-]

I'll take voicemail over rehearsed convo...
I also hate when peeps try to do the trick where they act like they are on the phone and actually answering, and then its voicemail, not sure if anyone does this anymore, but yeah, thats lame...

ohh yeah like "HELLO?? -pause- please leave a message..." thats stupid. It got me a few times. I also hate those people who have music as their voicemail.
