It's funny, I'm often exactly the opposite. Sometimes I'll just call people up...without warning, without scheduling. It'll catch them off guard at first, but I find it hands-down more efficient. Often times five minutes on the phone can garner a resolution easier than eight hours on an email chain (only to end up scheduling a call for the next day).

I really wish that people were more open to this; it's strange because it's how most of the world operated 10 years ago, but the thought of just calling someone up is almost ludicrous now...

Wish they understood that in the USA South. Just recently moved here.. In the north, yes -- people understood not to call. I get so annoyed as everyone calls me for the most silly reasons in the south! NEVER is there a text first.
