I am fairly confident, it would have been taken off your schedule eventually if you never called them. Be careful being proactive with green slips. You can put qualifiers in so they only call you on the ones you want.
Yes, that's why I rarely answer the phone when I get a call. Also why I only list one phone number with them so they don't have to waste more time calling a second number.
This scheduler didn't call for several hours. I didn't want to get a call the next day when I didn't show up for the trip even though I would have been in the clear. Yes, you can put in qualifiers, but in some cases you're trying to cover numerous options. And I've also learned from experience you can't always delete the old request and put in a new request because the new one won't be effective right away depending on the time of day.
