My coworkers write me “hi, do you have 5 min?” without telling me what it is because they know I would drop what I’m doing and directly focus on the new task. (It’s how I am, and they know how to deal with it).
With a little hi… they give me the option to say “sure, lets talk in 10 min” and finish what I’m doing.
But even “hi do you have 5 minutes” is more than I get from one team. I get “hi” and then they wait for my reply before anything else. If I don’t reply right away, nothing, silence.
100% the very last paragraph. Why do I have to wait for 78 messages to trickle through for one thought?
To add to that, starting with “hi” and waiting for a reply is a great way to not get a reply from me.
Well guess what
I’m pregnant…
So…
Hi
