How do you normally leave messages for people? Do you send text messages or do you leave notes?
Since I work in the small office have just 4 people, so if there is nothing special, I often asked them directly. If there is something important, I often send them a text or an email for backup purpose.

In the age of the internet it's better to leave a text message because people always bring their phones with them.
