I appreciate a phone call that’s scheduled in advance, and during a nice, quiet stretch of time when I’m curled up on the sofa or out walking my dog. My sister Maddie, however, loves to ring me at the worst moments with no notice.
It’s usually when she’s travelling on the train at six in the evening. She says it’s her “chat time”, but it’s a terrible time and place to have conversations. I can hear the noise of the train and people around her, and it’s really annoying. I can’t hear what she’s saying half the time, and then the call will cut out when she goes through a tunnel.
Sometimes Maddie won’t call me back after the call drops, and I’m left sitting there, thinking: “Is this call done?” Two days later, she will text me to say sorry. It’s all very irritating.
