We have an ansaphone but who knows how to use it?

There are people who ramble on an on until they get cut  off – that’s me, the crime I’m guilty of.

There are those who leave a message but forget to leave their number. Accidents happen, we all do this sort of thing.

In our office there are those who do not give their name, they just start talking to Mr TP. If he were there he might recognise there voice and know what they are talking about but I have no idea who they are or what job they are referring to.

But absolutely top of my list of people who need to be trained in how to use an ansaphone are those who do this one thing:

They clearly articulate the message and then

they race through their phone number at breakneck speed

such that I have to listen to the message four or more times.

I want to say to them, “Surely, how to contact you was the most important part of you message.”
