Mom's known to call my work number, almost daily, and leave messages. Except, in her mind, she's leaving a message on an answering machine. On numerous occasions, I've recieved this very message:
"Nicole, are ya there? It's Ma. Pick up." [silence.] "It's Ma. Are ya there? Pick up. [silence] "OK. Guess you're not there. Call me back."
Just imagine, if voice mail didn't exist and every worker's desk had an old-school answering machine. In my mom's world -- that's what modern office life is like. No matter how much I try to convince her otherwise.
