This seems really pompous and self important to me. Most people know to not expect an immediate response. I know it’s a joke but to say “it will take me 4 days to acknowledge you” is strange.
While I agree, I understand their sentiment.
Nobody deserves a response.
I tend to surround myself with people who are chill, and immediately drop off anyone who responds/reacts quickly.
I met a person at a meetup and connected. The next day, I had 3 text responses with small talk. Like "Hey what's up?" "What's your day like?" "How is work?" Fuck that, chill. they're a perfect candidate for this.
I accidentally logged on Facebook to fix a permission and almost instantly, I get bombarded with messages that I log off. Apparently me avoiding a message was so hostile that one of them proceeded to call me asking why Im ignoring them. Like damn, chill. I'll message you when I'm ready.
I am not following. At work you are hired in part to reply to messages (i.e. communicate with your bosses and coworkers)
No I'm hired to do a job effectively, and that means telling people to leave me alone.
No, you are part of an organization. Part of that is communication.
Wow - You really jobsplained my own job to me.
