Since when is voicemail dead? It's vital for when I miss a call from a healthcare provider, pharmacy, contractor, service provider ... do y'all just sit in a sealed box all day?

no, I call my doctors or other services to verify dates.. voicemail is abused by spammers so I never listen to them

Spammers never ever leave voicemails, that's how I know a call was spam. If someone actually needs me, either I have their numbers already or they leave a voicemail

I always get "An unresolved issue in our office requires your immediate attention, please call XYZ" with no other identifying information. I've learned to clear my inbox without listening to anything because if we had an existing relationship they'd say so.

...did you think I was lying or something? why would you say "spammers never ever leave voicemails" if I just said they do, lol
