    Y’all are weirdos. It’s just a fucking call. Take it, ask the person to slow down. It’s so quick. The amount of typing needed to replaced it is ridiculous.

      I think this kind of problem is more exhibited in millennials who grew up on online chat and message boards. For younger Gen Zs who basically live on Discord, there’s less apprehension about calling someone. Face-to-face communication is another story for those Gen Zs, though.

      Haha agreed. You don’t have to go back and forth over several hours or days to sort an issue out when you call. You can just hash it all out over the phone in a fraction of the time, and be on your way.

      Oh well, to each their own.

      Nah, the commitment in time on a call is unknown. I know I can fire off an email in under a minute. A call? That might take a few minutes. I’ll only call if I absolutely need an immediate response. Otherwise? Eat shit. I’m not getting roped into phone calls.
