I agree totally with you. People have left messages on my answering machine and they spoke the numbers so fast that I have had to listen 5 times to get them. Now on my answering machine I have the following message..and I am speaking very slowly. It has cured anyone of speaking to fast..and if they do speak to fast...guess what..I don't return their call.
You have reached the Thomas's. We are not able to take your call at the moment. To leave a message please speak slowly, and repeat all numbers clearly. Thank you.
