The guy is getting roasted in the comments too, especially about being unfair to NDs

    This is insane. Why wouldn’t they leave a voice mail? Why do you expect people to be available at all times?

    For example, what if I’m in the middle of a bike ride when this person calls back? Or driving? In the shower? Taking a dump? In a sensitive conversation? On the phone with someone else?

    This is the whole point of voice mail. There are plenty of reasons people might not answer the phone, even before the “spam call” issue comes into play.

    Your “basic logic” is extremely flawed.

      The argument is not about availability. It’s about answering calls from (listening to messages from, calling back to) unknown numbers.

        No, the original argument was about not even leaving a voice mail, just expecting someone is going to answer their phone every time it rings regardless of the situation.
