    Did you have the opportunity to let them know you were not going to be there?

    Either way, you need to contact them ASAP instead of prolonging matters on here.

    Did you make a note of when you left the message, if for some reason it is not recorded you would have a record of the call, or even on your phone log that you called HER ? On
