Driving school

August 19, 2006 on 1:09 am | In Life |

After stalling for a good amount of weeks, today I finally called the driving school to inquire about things such as waiting lists, costs, average amounts of lessons, passing percentages, etcetera.

Only to get a hold of their voicemail system.

Being so shy over the phone (for some reason I’m not shy when/once I’m talking to people over the phone, but I am shy when I have to call people), I didn’t even consider leaving a message and hung up.

If I get the same message again next Monday I’ll leave a message telling them to call me back.

In other news, today (or, technically, yesterday, the 18th) is my sister’s 23rd birthday. So happy birthday to the sister of GoneWacko.

  1. I’m kind of the same when it comes to phone calls, don’t really like making them. After a bit of practice though, it’s not too bad…

  2. When I was younger I had a speech problem which made things awkward on phones. For some reason this was worse with an answerphone, whereas you might think it would be better with no one actually listening. I heard the same thing about someone else too.

  3. The second time I called (last Wednesday) I got a hold of the guy instead of his voicemail system.
    I haven’t decided on a date and time for the first lesson yet though, because I’ll get my schedule next week, so I’ll wait for that :-)

    As always, though, once I get a hold of someone over the phone, I am not shy or anything. It’s just that, for some reason, I don’t like to call people.
