Its bad because I want to, briefly, return a few calls everyday. But I don't. The thing about returning calls is its a process that's made easier and easier by these goddamn cell phone companies until finally its become a worthless endeavor that means virtually nothing. It used to be you had to first have someone there to answer the phone in the first place, then write down the number, then lose the slip of paper, then find the slip of paper, then try and get the rotary spots in the right positions, or find a pay phone, for which you would need a quarter, not to mention everytime you tried it'd be pouring down rain or someone would be already standing in the booth, then you'd have to refind the number, attempt to make sense of the now smeared numberline, guess at a couple and talk to two to three strangers before actually getting a hold of the person you wanted to. And that's just to let them know you're coming home for dinner.
Now, the msg waits for you, then you have the option to hit a clearly marked number to return the phone call without ever hanging up, after which crystal clear reception no matter where you are lets you connect instantaneously. It sickens me and makes me want to start a revolution. Again
