I hate calling. I also hate when someone calls me with important info. Bro just give me a well written overview, with ordered lists and shit, so I have a single source of truth to have as reference later, and can serve as a basis for our future discussions.

Reference for later

Exactly this. Ive got too much shit in my brain to remember this. Not to mention, you called while im at [place] and cant dedicate brain power to you. Remember this isnt the days of land lines where you had to be home, and available to answer the phone, and most people kept note pads right next to the phone so they could write down that information

I send detailed e-mails then go to people's desks so I know they understand. Then follow up with another e-mail so they can be held accountable. If I can't make it to their work center, I am calling and making sure nothing is open to interpretation. People ignore e-mails and long work group chats all the time...
