This may be a stupid question but I'm just not clear on phone etiquette for this situation. I know that when someone leaves you a message you're supposed to call them back but I don't know if it's really necessary in this case.
I volunteer at a hospital and on Wednesday I had my hours cut so I could focus on final exams and all of the work I have at the end of this semester. Which means I had to cut volunteering Thurs. and Fri. So I called my contact in the area I usually volunteer in on those days and left a message explaining, and I gave her my number. Well, she called me back this morning but I didn't hear the phone rang so she left me voicemail. She just said that she completely understands, and hopes that I can come back in the fall, and said that she hopes I have a good summer.
Is it necessary to call back? I feel like if I don't it might be rude, but I feel like if I do it might be really repetitive because we both said everything we'd probably say on the phone in our voicemails. Thanks!
