If you call me with a request to do work or give me important information, I will tell you to text or email that to me.
Same I end every meeting where someone asks me to do something with a request for them to email me spelling it out. I don’t care if we covered all the ins and outs verbally and I already made notes, I want a paper trail of their expectations. The intention really being to train them that meeting first is a waste of time and they should just email me in the first place. If I don’t understand what you want I’ll set up a call.
