When you start live chatting with some companies tech support at 4:30, and at 5:15 you're still stuck at your desk, wishing you could leave.
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

You start live chatting and forget about it. It usually takes me 3-4 chat sessions before I make it through.
If you don't care why would you comment?

Chats take 30-60 minutes. It's unreal. You don't realize until it's all over. I don't do chats. I don't care how long I have to wait on hold.

I spent an hour and a half on the phone with bestbuy, and the outcome of the conversation was that the person I spoke to needed to get someone from another department to email me a link. Because that person didn't have clearance to send outgoing emails.

And she was singing while she was on the phone, waiting for things to happen :).

With chat at least I can work while waiting for a response.
