I have to disagree with the above statement. Email allows both parties to communicate when it is convenient. Having run a small retail store for five plus years, the interruptions of phone calls requiring detailed responses always come at the wrong time. The ability to sit down and review and answer email at a time that won't be interrupted is a real blessing, not lazy.
AMEN ! You wanna know how many times a day I get out from under a Van covered in grease, grime and rust to answer the phone ? Ha ! You don't wanna know ! AND, it's always when you almost have that little tiny screw that is almo st impossible to get in place and started that the phone rings. EVERYTIME ! Murphy's Law ! Rita says don't answer the phone, let the machine pick up and call them back ! But, I just like talking to you all and hoping I can help you !
