Oh, no. Oh no, oh NO! He’s not answering. This has never happened before. What should I do? I’m totally unprepared. This is the worst thing that could’ve happ-

“Hey this is Steve. I’m sorry I’m not here right now-”

Apology accepted, Steve. Go on…

“-but if you’ll leave your name, number-”

Wait! Let me go get a pen! Ok, naaaaame, nuuuuumber…

“-and a brief message-”

Brieeeeef messsssage…

“-I’ll get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks for calling.”

Wow. You’re welcome Steve! Great guy, that Steve. Hey, thanks so much for still explaining to me in detail how to leave a message. I haven’t really caught on to the whole voicemail thing. I’ve only been doing it for 15 years…I heard it takes about 20 to really nail it. Hey, while you’re at it, could you show me how to send an email? I’m having some trouble logging on to my internet web.
