It’s not so much that I can’t make phone calls, as much as I don’t want to. 75% of the time you just end up playing phone tag, and I’d rather just email so they can reply at their convenience and there’s no question about who said what

You play phone tag because people REALLY hate being called

Along with the fact that any more when you HAVE to call, it's going to be dealing with a bullshit auto answering system that leads you in circles and intentionally misunderstands you.

My coworker spent 30 minutes trying to find another way to contact a vendor after I told her the easiest way to order the thing she needed was just to call and it would take 2 minutes. I hate calling too, but that's just dumb. Or maybe I just like efficiency more than I hate the phone.

At work at least I have a script I can follow. I am The Role.

But please don't make me order a pizza after work hours
