Combination of spam callers being more prevalent and the younger generation has unbelievably high social anxiety as a direct result of them mostly being raised indoors and alone with family.
I'm not saying that the way we older folks grew up was inherently better at all times, but it certainly forced us to converse with strangers and develop those skills.
My little twin brothers and my little sister were actually afraid to call a pizza place and order pizza when they were younger. They still don't really do phone calls aside from work related things or direct family.
I don't know why, but I despise phone calls. I'd even rather someone video call me or talk face to face. I just find it worse than every other method of communication.
Because we don't have those nice thick hard plastic handles to rest on your shoulder

Voicemail should be lower on that list, I'd rather take a call than check voicemail any day.
Not once have I had a usable voice mail UI. Forced to go through 10 seconds of menu between each message to delete and select the next one, and 90% of them are people just hanging up after realizing they hit voice mail. Then the few times I do get an important message, I have to replay the full message multiple times to transcribe the number I need to call. No seeking, no ending the playback after I've passed the bit I needed, often terrible audio. Why do you do this when you have my email?
I have to use 3CX for work and it's the least bad voicemail I've had any experience with. Literally emails me the .wav so I can listen with VLC.
Sometimes I play techno and pretend I'm getting missions in armored core. Almost doesn't suck.
My iPhone just has a list of them where you can tap one and see a transcription I can quickly read to confirms it’s spam, does your phone not?
Maybe the speech recognition has improved since I last gave automatic transcription a shot, but in my experience it was almost always laughably bad.
