Em may be a chicken who can't think on his feet. Which is frustrating because all he's doing is harming his client and running up costs.
Or
Em may be one of these kids who prefers text because he thinks it allows him to frame the issues the way he wants to frame them. Which is also frustrating because, in response, I'm going to ignore his attempt to frame them and just pitch what I was going to pitch. I'll have to go thru three emails, however, before he realizes I'm ignoring his attempts, which gets us to exactly where we should have been during the first call.
Millennials seem to think that they can corner opposition via email and text. Ummm, it's settlement discussions. None of it is admissable.
I'm old. Definitely in the "Now get off my lawn, you fucking kids!" stage.
