Ask HN: Do you procrastinate on (important) phonecalls too?

1 points by patrics123 ↗ HN
Imagine you need to - schedule an appointment at the dentist - call a customer to inform them about a delay - or even just call your mom

I often find myself to move it to "I'll just do it tomorrow" for a few days/weeks in a row.

Is it just me or do you know this too?

Yes. I hate making phone calls. But I am okay with voice messages via Whatsapp.

I really don't like talking on the phone, especially to strangers, but even to my wife. I used to even hate ordering pizza and in college I would ask other people to call for me. I think it's a function of introversion. I can expend energy on people but my store is limited, so I save it for important face-to-face interactions with my wife and kids.
