If you must get in touch with me, call me. The phone will make noise. An annoying noise. Then it will beep and you'll be prompted to leave a voice mail. Then you'll be told the mailbox is full and be cut off. If you really need to talk to me, call again. And again. And again. If you call me back 3x, I'll know it's serious. If you call me back 4x or more, it's a death in the family.

If I know you well enough that your call might be important I've told you before:

"Don't leave voicemail. I get too many that are a waste of time to bother sorting through them. If it's important text that it's important and I'll call back when I can. If not I'll see you called and get back eventually."

If I haven't had that conversation with you I really don't give a care if you ever get a hold of me.
