Our company relies pretty heavily on teams, apparently. Someone (regional operations director) asked me if I saw their teams message. I told him I exit out as soon as it opens and have never used it in 4 years. Email me or call me like an adult.
I don’t want phone calls, and I certainly don’t really care for emails, way over used.
As a person that got used to being online with IRC and Usenet, I gotta say Teams (as a pain in the ass as it is) is the best way to communicate (if that is the chat type tool you have).
You don’t have to respond right away, you have the information collected in chat channels, you can bring in others into the chat.
But most importantly: it is the only one that makes sense with asynchronous remote work.
A phone call? I tell people I do not have a phone anymore, there is no number to call. Why would you want interruption?
I dont like calls either. I have to send back documents, email is 99% of the comms i use. Teams worked in a previous role that was constant group work on a single thing.

That’s insane to me.

You guys still passing around documents? I try and put a stop to that as soon as I see it.
I buy and sell things, so yes. Constantly.
Except, also no calls. They’re horribly jarring and often interrupt the workflow.
Yeah, I shouldnt have included calls. I hate calls
