Cell Phone Protocol

In these days of lost connections we would all benefit from knowing that it would be the person who originated the call that would be calling back. That way both parties are not trying to call back at the same time and being shunted to each other’s voice mail box. A particularly insidious game of phone tag.

This game makes the cell companies unnecessary money. I wonder if they don’t randomize weak signals just to get more minutes from all of us.

So, if you call me and we get lost, it will be you that calls back. Simple.
And, just like every other good rule, there are exceptions.
