This key can be used to negotiate a more interesting way to communicate with a different set of keys, if you’re worried about stuff like envelope data. I get it.

Phone:

This really happens Sooo, about this. You apparently already have the number (it isn’t hard to find). A lot of people call, and many of them have excellent things to say! Stuff that would be mutually beneficial, great ideas, or even just to say hello and share love. Some of you also want to tell me about your company’s amazing cash offer for my house, or think that I should refinance at a higher rate, or tell me about my vehicle’s warranty.

I cannot possibly discharge all my day’s duties and answer every single phone call though (it would be a full-time job), so generally it works like this:

  • Text is infinitely better. I have no problems typing to you in a message window if I’m not exercising, driving a car, or something like that. You’ll probably get an answer this way, and quickly, even if I’m on an airplane!
  • If we have a business relationship or are in the process of establishing one, congratulations, I’ll probably see that and pick right up. You have the Power of Interruption, use it wisely!
  • If I’m in a meeting, or in Focus Time, or at an appointment, or driving, or walking dogs, I can’t or won’t answer. There’s a lot of stuff that I do every single day that precludes telephony, even for urgent business. I might answer you on my Apple Watch, but it’s kinda unlikely.
  • If you don’t leave a message and I don’t know who you are, I can’t call you back (this should be obvious).
  • If I didn’t call you back already, it’s pointless to try again. I have no idea why some people immediately try to call a few more times without even leaving messages.
  • If you look me up and find the other number on my account, congratulations, that’s my wife’s number. Bothering her will get you blacklisted and you’re never getting a call back.

TL;DR Just text me. It works. So does email.

Amateur Radio:

K3PV - You just might find me lurking on 20-meter PSK31, or fiddling with the local VHF/UHF repeaters.
