Iced Borscht

Ruth Waytz

Okay, I am officially, once and for all, LAYING IT DOWN:

When the cell phone craps out (and we all know that’s not an IF), the person who Made The Initial Call is the one to call back.

I’m sick to death of that frantic who’s re-calling whom, all of which only ends with overall cellular lockout, eight voicemails, and both parties forgetting why they were even talking in the first place.

Are we together on this? Can we agree that everybody remains calm, and that the Call-ER re-places the call, not the Call-EE?

Thank you. To be implemented and shared immediately.

(a flourish)

Resume.
