I begin every business-related phonecall with "I'll want this in writing", and end it with "please send me an email with a summary of what we've talked about".

Guess what, the amount of phonecalls and complaints has halved, because I have proof in writing.

That's my sister. Good fucking god. I don't care about the supposed drama of your workplace. It is not interesting. You'd think that my tone would be enough to get thru her thick skull that I HATE TALKING ON THE PHONE but noooo...

"No."

Crisis averted, can get back to fixing things now. The only way you're getting me on the phone is if there's some audio component to the problem (alarm buzzers or tones they aren't able to identify) that isn't easy to explain in text. Other than that, there are usually just a handful of common issues and you can tell which path we're going down after a sentence or two of their description.

I'm mostly this way, but not today.

I had someone with an issue signing up for an account mention that they were not successful because when they tried to sign up, they got a message that they weren't eligible because there was already an account using that email address.

I told them if they have a Gmail account, just use the + addressing feature, otherwise, just create a Gmail account.

Someone else responded on the first person's account "But they don't have Gmail, so they can't do it."

Let me tell you, THIS is a situation where a call is necessary. There's nothing I can type that will suddenly unravel the layers here and that won't lead to more layers being laid. It will be 100000000000000% easier and less time consuming to schedule a meeting/call and talk through this than it would be to continue this discussion in text format.

I told them if they have a Gmail account, just use the + addressing feature, otherwise, just create a Gmail account.

If they couldn't get a login reset sent to their email, then that's broken. If they have to create a new email account just for you, that's bullshit, too.

I find zoom calls to be much more helpful than in person. In person I have to bring my laptop, point to things, find a place where we can both sit, and probably send you code snippets over chat anyway, not to mention literally looking over your shoulder.

meatspace is deprecated, get over it corpos.

Depends on the problem. For design and architecture level, sometimes even data structures, a physical whiteboard is still king.

Me, sending a ticket to another team: "Man, I hope we can get this solved in the ticketing system"

Me, getting a ticket from another team: instantly calls them
