Rules To Follow When Cell Phones Drop Coverage
- staunch 18y agoSounds like the beginnings of a Seinfeld episode. Who ARE these people that Double-call The Callback?
- redorb 18y agooh I do miss seinfeld ;)
- akd 18y agoThis not new. The phone etiquette since Day 1 has been that the person who made the call, redials.
- cduan 18y agoWhy don't we make like TCP/IP packets: if there's a collision (i.e., you reach voicemail on a callback after a dropped call), wait a random number of seconds before trying to call again. I actually do this all the time, and it works great.
- xirium 18y agoExponential backoff also works exceptionally well in the case of dead batteries.
- mhb 18y agoNo one should call back. What you were jabbering about wasn't that important anyway.
