About the remote work comms there is a widespread attitude that irks me: People texting "can we talk?" or simply "hello".
No! tell me straight away what you need so I can judge how and when to respond.
When people state what they need, most of the time the response is immediate and it's the thing they need or some ok followup.
"can-we-talkers" I'm starting to let stew for a few minutes, because I suspect they do that on purpose to "skip my queue".
I agree. Having worked on the shop floor I don't like my time being wasted and I'm careful to add detail for my colleagues so that they are engaged from the outset with my query. All I ask is 'give me half an hour' or some similar response so I can manage other people's expectations.
