One of the strangest things, to me anyway, that came out of the pandemic is this habit of texting/messaging people to ask if you can call them. I'm not saying it's right or wrong. It's just an interesting change in communication dynamics.
It sort of makes sense for Teams, Slack, etc. where even if the person is available, they may not be prepared to receive a call for technical reasons. But a lot of people do the same thing for phone calls.
I ask first because calling is a huge drain on my brain. I'm not gonna do that if I'm just getting voicemail.
Er what, people have been doing that since long before the plague happened, id say it started becoming commonplace around the time when SMS became widespread and not being charged per-text lmao
Interesting. I guess I must not talk to people on the phone a lot because I hadn't really experienced that much before.
I think it's somewhat age gated. But I love it. A phone call out of nowhere means I need to drop everything and give you my full attention, and I have to make that decision within 20 seconds or it's too late.
A text first gives me so many more options. Especially if I like to prepare, for example, stepping out of the crowded office. Or parking the car. (Which still works even if I don't read texts until parked.)
