Yeah I hate that. There's no way you can't communicate what you need over email or IM. And if you genuinely can't, well, you have serious communication issues.

A lot of people really can't communicate, or just aren't sure what they want in the first place.

So they can't explain over the phone either, but fifteen minutes of vague rambling lets them feel like they explained it, and there's no written record of what they did or didn't say so they can blame you if you can't work it out. It's win/win, as in they win and blame you regardless of what you do.
