I have a roommate. We each have cell phones and there's also a home phone that I alone pay for. Since my roommate has moved in, he's used my home phone for all of his calls that are NOT his personal friends, meaning he's giving my phone number to everyone. This morning some lady for something in regards to insurance premiums called for him, but he was asleep and I took the message. After I hung up, he got mad and said it was an important call and that I should have given him the phone. Now, this is MY phone, *I* pay the bill, and he's sure as hell not paying me to be his personal secretary. Does he have any right to get mad about how I answer my OWN phone and take messages or what message I leave on MY voicemail? How do I tell him if his calls are so important to use his own damn phone? It feels like he's mooching off me so as to not use up his minutes, but like I said, he's not paying the home phone bill.
