Nah I’m just not. Never before in history were you expected to just interrupt someone’s day that’s thousands of miles away.
I’d rather send a letter written with a quill than have to call someone. Hell if your business only accepts walk ins and calls I’m going to assume you’re illegally operating and have something to hide. I’d trust a business that only responds to emails over one that only takes calls.
What history are you talking about? All of 1920s to present day calls are common ways of communicating with people. I take calls frequently at work between coworkers.
I have never even heard of emailing to set up something like a haircut or car appointment. I’ve always called for something like that. Or I’ll call to pickup food I assume that’s what most people do?
You’re legit paranoid if you think only taking calls is “hiding something”.
Refusing to take calls for a preference reason is some childish shit. Just grow up and talk on the phone
Why the fuck would you call to set appointments or order food for pickup? What century are you living in that businesses don’t have websites for that. Why are you so lazy that you’re going to force a minimum wage worker to type things into a website that you yourself can access?
For my car for instance, I like to talk to the person about things going on with it, I just got quotes for tires for instance.
I’ve literally never ordered food online, other than a few random restaurants that are online order only. They took down my email and made me make an account, fuck that for getting some dinner. I’m not subjecting anyone to anything, taking calls is their job. They just write down the order on a ticket and make food ???
Also there are quite a bit of restaurants in my area that do not have websites. Think like pizza shops, bars, a ton of non-english speaking places. Also not everyone can use a website or app. Older people in particular.
When I have people work on my home for something I can’t do myself, they often prefer the calls and I do as well because I need to iron things out and get opinions and chat.
When it comes to work, I’ll literally send an email and get a call back sometimes. It just works better for my field.
You’re the one being weird about something people have been doing for the past century.
I prefer to call for food because it guarantees that the restaurant (which I presumably like) will get all of the money I spend on food.
Nearly all of those online ordering platforms take a cut from whatever they facilitate. Sometimes that means prices are more expensive online, or sometimes it’s the same price on my receipt but less money for the restaurant.
And I’m not sure what your point about minimum wage workers is. Normally it’s already someone’s job to talk to customers and enter their order in a system.

If it’s not an app or website, it’s a scam.
Lmao what?

This is a ludicrous take lmao
