  Perfect. At least some of the people are not asleep at the wheel and can still keep the place they like garbage-free.

  I like that people can and do express that LLM slop is not welcome here.

  Adding “This is a fact” doesn’t make it a fact, sadly. Unless you’re in the US.

  Unironically works. They start typing the email and rubber-ducky themselves half of the times.

  Seems like a management issue.

  I begin every business-related phonecall with “I’ll want this in writing”, and end it with “please send me an email with a summary of what we’ve talked about”.

  Guess what, the amount of phonecalls and complaints has halved, because I have proof in writing.

  I’ve worked as phone support for a year and I hate phonecalls even more.

  I’d rather send an email with detailed steps and let people follow the instructions at their own pace. If they fail - remote.

  Phonecalls are a weste of everyone’s time.
