      +1 Email or text is usually my method, also. I have never had any issues using it either.
      Phone if not in when planned. SMS if going to be 'late' (whatever that means).

              Why not just Snapchat them a photo of your face and see if they can use video analytics to work out what you're confused about this time?

                    There's more but I really want to forget the whole sorry affair and move on...

                      Obviously can vary depending on your relationship with the client. Everyone gets treated differently where I am, trust and delivery stands for a lot.
