I once took a picture, and offered to email it to my younger co-worker. (I'm old.) He paused, and said "Email? I don't remember the last time I used email. Why don't you text it to me?"
There are people who just don't use email, and not because they're not tech savvy.
- crumpets 8y agoGiven that it’s required to sign up for online billing and most online services, I think your younger coworker either doesn’t understand how to set it up on his/her phone or was just straight up lying because the email address was embarrassing or some other reason to hide it.
- a3n 8y agoSo you set it up, sign up for whatever, and never use it again except to sign up for something.
- nsgi 8y agoI rarely check my personal email because of the volume of spam and other noise I receive, so if a friend tried to contact me that way I probably wouldn't get it. I don't set up email notifications on my phone for that reason.
- grecy 8y agoYep. I'm 36 and just hung out with a 26 year old. When I said email is the best way to contact me he said "Wow, going old school". When I asked him, he said "Whats App" all the way, never uses anything else!
