Boomers. I have a lot of older bank people that cold call me for help.
Posted by WhitmansFolly

Yeah - no one calls anymore (and email is getting rarish), making this thread humorous to me*

I wish I lived in this “email is getting rarish” world.*

So the rest of the world should modify their email signatures cause you had to deal with a dumbass?*
Posted by CoronaTheirAss
|
Most laws exist because somebody was a dumbass. But in this case, not having your contact info
Posted by ATL
|
if you've gotten far enough to see my email signature, we're at the appropriate level of contact. *

ooo
Posted by ATL
|
you can only answer via phone call?*
Posted by VIV
|
Efficiently and effectively? Yes. Literally? No. *
Posted by ATL
|
Fine, but your call is going to voicemail regardless *
Posted by PapaDels
|
NP, I won’t have to answer your question *
Posted by ATL
|
Exactly*
Posted by CoronaTheirAss
|
This.

The worst is when they include their email address in there…*

Fire me. I don't have an email signature.
Posted by EffinIllini Edit: I don't have a direct line at work and don't remember my work extension. Sure as hell aren't putting my personal phone number in an email unless I really want someone to have it.

I was going to go with drawn and quartered, but it's a kinder/gentler world we live in today.

People without email signatures/contact info usually are terrible at their job

Email is the most inefficient way to conduct a client interview. What could be a 5 minute phone call
Posted by ATL
|
Of course. After an initial email, "Hey, do you have time for a quick call? Here's my number."
Posted by EffinIllini
|
I was gonig to twerp it with a CRJ video but decided not to*

It set up too easily, and that song has been on the noggin lately.

Perhaps controlled at the entity level, but i can't make or receive external calls on Teams.
Posted by Dilbert
|
This was an internal call. And it went through and rang 10 times.*
Posted by ATL
|
Yeah, he didn't answer on Teams*
Posted by ATL
|
Anyone who cold calls on Teams is a sociopath*
Posted by Sounder
|
I mean, he told me he was available to talk*
Posted by ATL
|
So you let him know, and then he didn't pick up?
Posted by Sounder

Hot take: the cloud has made things worse
