Texting vs calling

Working with elders I hear texting bashing almost every day.

Trying to explain to them is pointless.

So today I had a great example of wishing I texted...

My schedule for weekends was not as I expected. If I sent text it would be ‘guys, please check my schedule for weekends and confirm that I am off’

That would be it!

Phone call...4:50pm...

Hi Gemitati! How are you doing dear? Is everything all right?

Yes. Just want to check my schedule for weekends.

Boss yelling to a scheduler that it’s me and I need check.

Scheduler picking up the phone.

Hey stranger! Long rime no see. Are you coming to say hello ever?

Yes. I need to make sure this shift covered on weekends.

Oh! Yeah! Someone stepped in and I wanted you to have some time off to not to work you into a ground.

Thanks so much.

You are welcome sweatie. Hope to see you soon. And have a great weekend. I am really glad we were able to give you some rime off.

I said it’s 5. Don’t want to work late on Friday!

Oh! It’s 5. Got to go. Have a good weekends...

I was like...I am glad I haven’t called an hour earlier! I would be in the phone for much longer! Lmao

So...we can’t afford phoning anymore...lmao
