I held a distinguished visiting chair at a college for eight years of very successful teaching. Never understood the voicemail, never once listened to my messages. The message light on the phone blinked for eight years.
@fesshole I adopt the same policy for anyone who sends me a voice message on WhatsApp - completely ignored - I am not going to waste five minutes of my time listening to a rambling message that could have been a one line text.
@fesshole@baoigheallain Never underestimate the value of tone in voice messages amd calls. The amount of confusion and frustration I am dealing with right now that could be avoided if people juat picked up the phone and actually spoke.
