Either send me an email and you'll get an answer when you get an answer, or come see me in person. Phone calls and text messages are annoying as shit.
How is a phone call any different from speaking in person?
You're talking to each other, only the phone call is more convenient as it can be placed from anywhere :-D
And that's half the problem. My job deals with things that physically exist, and if you can't be bothered to get your ass in here to actually look at it, I can't be bothered to deal with whatever your problem of the day is (yes I'm getting bitter about engineers sitting at home telling me "BuT iT wOrKs iN CAD").
Also, in person conversations are far more effective than phone conversations. Human communication is far more than just purely verbal.
I've upvoted you but it's different for me. I hate ad hoc calls but have no issue if someone comes over to my desk. Terrible is I'm basically remote full time...
How is an email that different from a text? aside from desktop acess I guess.
Email tends to have less expectation for immediate response and doesn't have unavoidable "message read" notifications. Most importantly, in my experience at least, people tend to put more details into an email. Texts, teams messages, etc seem to cause people to try and speak in single sentences, and then I have to play 21 questions to drag the info out of them.
Oh my god this. I've gotten some well natured teasing from co-workers about taking a while to type multiple sentence teams messages (they'll see the typing icon in the full team group chat), but when the alternative is a back and forth that doesn't need to happen, or them having to wait a few minutes from first message until the idea is complete, I think it's the best approach.
You also probably have better search and organization features with email. I don't work in office settings so i really don't email much.
