> Voice messages are easier for the producer, but are always more work for the consumer. This is so true especially for long voice messages. I really don't like listening to people thinking aloud about what they want to tell me. I mean...this isn't a suprised-by-voicemail moment, they intentionally decided they wanted to send this voice message in the first place. But it gets even worse if you (like me) don't like sending voice messages. Maybe it's just me, but to reply to a lengthy voice message via text I have to listen to it in parts multiple times to adress every question/topic which was raised in it. I'm totally fine with people calling me, if they prefer voice. But please don't send me voice messages as long you're not in a car or otherwise unable to text and have a real important message. > I very much do not want to be bombarded with voice messages in a professional context. I had one client who started sending me voice messages and it drove me nuts. I realised that most people tend to forget what they said in a voice message faster then via other means.
