I've always been a fan of a howdy call🤠-my term for calling colleagues to say “hi” w/out any work agenda. I made them regularly early in my career. Since we're in #workfromhome mode, I've reinstated these calls & have 3/day. You should too! #stayconnected https://www.nytimes.com/...

Verizon says it is now handling ~800M wireless calls on weekdays, more than double Mother's Day, while AT&T says calls are up 35%; internet usage is up 20-25%
The volume of phone calls has surged more than internet use as people want to hear each other's voices in the pandemic.
