Why are people so offended over the fact there are some ppl who don't like phone calls? π€·ββοΈ who cares
People who are so used to getting everyone to stop what they're doing get upset when they aren't the center of attention.
It's kinda childish, especially when you need something done now that requires details and understanding with no failure.
Edit: not to say you can't achieve this with other forms but the idea that there aren't millions of situations where you picking up the phone is more advantageous than a text.
Where's the humanity in us all
That's about the only reason a call is better and should be scheduled as a meeting If at all possible. If there's no need to have a back and forth conversation just text or email so I don't have to disrupt the half dozen other things I'm currently working on to deal with you. As for humanity I spend enough time interacting with people I don't want to talk to. I'm not hurting for more.
Nothing you want needs to be done immediately. NOTHING.
Example and my ass just got outta bed and the coffee is still drippin'....if I have any questions, I can refer to the text instead of calling your ass...I do shit late, want a call at 2am?
Clearly not. Business calls should happen during business hours only. BUT, it is also pretty clear that direct speech is the most efficient way of communication when you donβt need a written record, so calls definitely have a purpose.
