Learning new apps? lol. I can barely be bothered to figure out how iPhone functionality works. If anyone at work wants me to go into some platform to do anything I just tell them to email me.

Products are also getting worse. It might not be you.

A UX person once told me that if you have a problem three or more times with a product, it's not on you; it's a bad user expérience.

I tell people to call me now. I cannot fucking stand emails. I think the world of “let’s just email” and not bother anyone is fucking stupid. People should talk on the phone and interact with one another in a way that isn’t just through the screen. I can’t stand the screens.

Also, call me on my actual phone, none of those screen calls through zoom or teams or whatnot. I don’t want to see your face.

Agree. Anything important is done over the phone. Email is for positioning and optics.

I’m just so burnt out by the email needling, man. I don’t even care anymore. I don’t read all my email and that's not going to change. Nevertheless, you cannot complain about me not responding to email, if you've never picked up the phone. I don't care about the documentary record (I have 10 emails, NINTH REQUEST, it's been 350 days without a response, etc., etc., etc.). Email evidence is worthless unless it is memorializing phone calls.

If that means I’m not meant for this world, I’m not meant for this world. There’s only so much one man can take.

Nobody successful ever got it done just by sending an email.

Unfortunately it’s part of the game. Corporate world is similar to pro sports. It’s a young man’s game. At some point you just get tired of the grind and want to hang up your cleats, move into an Old Man advisory role.
