We had a new Engineer start, fresh out of college, and he was terrified to call people at first. Now, only a few months later, he much prefers it as a more effective means of communicating.

I had a job where I made 20+ calls per day. I worked there for almost 2 years, and hated it just as much the day i quit as the day i started. They weren't even particularly difficult calls, just processing orders and looking up part numbers.

That being said now I sit in zoom meetings which don't seem that different but I find them 100x less stressful.
