Today a woman left me a long voicemail, physically WALKED to my office and left me a note saying, "Hey Ben, please call me."

It would have taken literally 5 seconds for an email saying: "Ben, how do I add network printers?"

Totally agree. I always give out my email address and tell people it's the easiest way to reach me. I'll typically answer an email right away. A voicemail... when I get around to it. Playing phone tag with someone in this day and age is ridiculous.
