As annoying as voicemail can be, I hate text messaging double. I rarely respond to a text. If I do, it's with a phone call or email.
I use voicemail as a call screener, as well. If I don't recognize the number calling, or if I do and just don't have the time or inclination to get into a conversation with that person at the time, I let it ring out and wait to see who they are or what's on their mind on the voicemail they leave, if any. Plus, as a rule, I don't take personal cell calls while at work, nor texts, or chat requests.
