i don’t understand your ask, can we hop on a quick call?
That's my polite way of saying "what the fuck are you talking about?"
Or “what you’re asking may be illegal so I’m gonna mention that to you over the phone and not in documents that will come out in discovery“
That's why any of those quick calls are always followed up by a message that recaps the meeting/has action items.
Go ahead and discuss that item you don't want in discovery, I'm gonna note it just so I don't forget what the fuck we were talking about
I have a coworker that does this and they think it's keeping everything above board but instead they just create openings for opposing councils to second guess and cast doubt on internal processes.
Those kinds of calls are for making determinations and decisions, not airing concerns and greivances for the record.
People's note taking aren't always accurate and they aren't taken under oath. Even when there's nothing even closely illicit being discussed, it's not stenography. Best hope you can defend the veracity of your notes in a deposition or before a judge.
All assuming that's a feature of your job, of course. Otherwise it's probably entirely irrelevant.
