[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 136737, member: 1697"] Hey cool! NOw why didn't I think of that- give them a timeframe for returning my call? GOOD IDEA! I give cell becuz darned surgeon- yeesh, he KNEW I was at RMH and waiting for something from him before we could leave..yet he kept calling my house, and was getting mad when I was not home to answer- even tho he knew very well I was where he was.....(becuz home was 5 hours away and HE did not want me to go home) Nevermind I GAVE them my cell......they STILL called home. Becuz I have to head out to so many docs appts so early, I gave in and begin giving my cell becuz lots of times I would get TO a far away appointment and find out they tried to call my house while I was en route to tell me it was rescheduled (by them) Yes, I do keep paper, pens (plural) calender at my house phone and on telephone call day I do try to stay right home, and try to not be doing things that would make it difficult to grab the phone, --but how many hours od I wait? LOL. So I had 9 calls to start this morning, 6 got handled by 7 PM. (I began at 9 am) 1 is entirely unresolved with no ideas how to continue, and 2 will be continued to tomorrow. <sigh> And of course it never failed-I went pee, and phone rang. I nodded off next to phone, it rang and startled me, LOL. Another time I was on with one call and another came thru. 2 calls generated 4 more calls between those 2....where I had to leave MORE voicemails. and of those 4, 2 caalled back to refer back to where I originally called. Yeesh. I think I need a degree in telephone calling or something. I just keep thinking, yeesh, if I WERE SICK..I would NOT be up to all this weirdness. I think if I had a job still, and needed a docs note to be out sick, now, I think it might be easier to call in dead, and look for a new job or something, I dunno. LOL, I HATE telephone day of the month. It is worse than Bill Paying Day......LOL. No wonder I still have not changed my home phone service, either---last 3 times I trie d to get a human so I could do that- I sat on hold approx an hour each time, before giving up. Yup, next time, I will leave a timeframe for them to call me back. HOPEFULLY they will honor it. ALTHO since they so seldom sem to have gotten anything other than my name when they return my call- I am a lil skeptical. Oh, and I think, the call I made where all I got was non english? I think that triggered something weird-I got one call from Mexico today and 2 calls where the person calling me only spoke spanish. LOL. I wonder if they are as confused as I am? [/QUOTE]
