Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I think it's early to declare voicemail dead. It was alive and kicking when I checked mine last Christmas...or was that Christmas 2019? Maybe I should check on it again.
And I've been assured that my work voicemail is definitely setup and functional. I trust the team that sets those things up, and I'm confident that it's doing it's job... whatever it's for.
Hahahaha, have my upvote.
Yea, we don't bother at work. You know I called, don't waste your time listening to a message. If I called, it was urgent, get back to me as quick as you can.
Otherwise I'm gonna send you a message to setup a call.
Yeah. I'm very thankful that my work operates by the same expectations.
Anyone calling unscheduled is urgent enough that I probably shouldn't waste time listening to the voicemail. Every other call is scheduled, anyway.
It leaves my work voicemail delightfully empty.
