A week or so ago I listened to a cheery message on my voicemail, "Hi, it's me. Call me back." The call-back number was blocked and read "PRIVATE MESSAGE."
I didn't recognize the voice in the short message, and I couldn't dial back. I wondered if all her calls are blocked or if the call had been placed from a Sprint cell phone, using the one-number, instant return of a message I had left for her. I had used my Sprint service for eight years before someone asked me why I had blocked my number when calling back; I hadn't. Only then did I realize that my number wasn't displayed to the person I called, if I used the one-number return-call function.
So now, I'm wondering who is waiting for me to call her back. Or is someone?
The moral of the story? Leave your name and number, even if you know the person will know who called.
Maybe it was just a random act of kindness. You know - leave a friendly message for someone. Maybe...
