This is what I'm gonna need for you to understand.....
I guess I'm going to have to do some 'splain' to a few customers.
My cell phone was charging last night. I don't turn it off, because to be honest half the time I'll forget to turn it back on.
Anyway - it rang last night. At 10:00 in the evening.
I thought it HAD to be a mistake. Then I heard the "alert" that I had a new voicemail. So I checked the number.
It was a customer. A customer calling and leaving a voicemail at 10:00 on a Friday night.
Ha! I laugh at his stupidity.
Now? The cell phone is off. And I will NOT listen to the voicemail until Monday morning. Nope. Not gonna give in on this one.
I'm awake and available from 6:00am to 6:00pm. Monday through Friday. I think that's pretty damned good.
10:00 on a Friday night? That's MY time......

Good for you! :)

I actually got a request at 10:30 on a friday night to come out and fix a printer that was out of ink.
