Most people in crypto know me as a kind of economics-special situations-accounting type person, but I used to be an archaeologist. I recently had a new archaeologist (kid of a client of a friend) ask me for advice as they start their first private sector archaeology project. One of the defining features of private contracting in archaeology is that work is measured in weeks or months, not years. So you need to constantly be prospecting for work. I explained to this kid that, as the end of a project is on the horizon, you need to email 5+ clients per day, and after 48 hours pick up the phone and call. It’s harder to say no to someone on the phone. I’m not sure why. But my point was that even in bad weather, in the winter (frozen ground is bad for archaeological work), in a recession, someone has work somewhere. But the kid’s takeaway was about phone calls. Do people below a certain age not do regular phone calls? I don’t know. Maybe it’s this one 22 year old. But I feel like I’ve run into it before. But it struck me as a possible generational divide. In crypto, we generally do video calls (often with the camera off). So doing even less seemed less scary to me? Anyone out there have thoughts or data l on whether this is an anecdotal story or part of a larger trend of avoiding phone calls?
