What‘s next ?!

Today was one of these days, I had a million little things to do and all my clients wanted something.

Not a problem, simply call me or fax me or e mail me or text me but DON"T do all the above please. Usually we communicate by phone calls and e mails, today was one of these days where I just could not catch up with my messages because everybody used a different way of communicating. I felt like the girl in "He is just not that into you"   and now that my day is finally over and I have checked all 4 ways of communicating one last time, I wonder   "What is next?

I really really wish some genius would come up with ONE way of communicating or at least a way to combine all this different ways.
