Sometimes people just forget to respond. Yes, they read the message. Maybe they read it while they were in the car (not supposed to, but...whatever). Maybe their read it before running 7 errands. Maybe they read it at midnight and said to themselves they'll respond to it after whenever. For one reason or another, they just didn't get back to you.

I always remember to respond to those. Is there any good reason to give more than one chance? After all, you are the customer. (Can we say customer under the new rules?
