Text above reads: ‘Are you busy?’ Me: ‘No’ Incoming video call
"Oh, sorry, you meant for a call? No, I'm in a meeting already, I'm free to do stuff but I can't answer a call."
I can hear the groan in this image.
A rookie mistake. Never let them know you aren't busy.
My boss likes to remind me I am showing as offline on slack, I turn it back on 5min and then back off
My Slack used to bug out or something and show me as away or offline constantly. My boss would call me and accuse me of slacking off when I was actually too hyper-focused on my work to notice
Sounds like a horrible boss.
For real: my boss has one policy, as long as the job gets done I don't care. I'll start caring as soon as the job's not getting done.
This means I can work on my own schedule and if I keep delivering nobody asks me a question!
That's how it should be. You're paid to do work, not to look busy.
This is why my answer is either "yes," if I'm busy, or "kind of, why what is it?" Judging by the followup I can determine how exactly how "kind of," busy I am.
swipes to decline
Not being busy != Free for a call of any kind.
Leave me alone. 😭
"I am shitting, so i'il not answer unless ya want to ear the orchestra"
"Sorry, I hate video calls. You can call me the old school way if you want to talk."
That isn't asking me if I'm available for a call. So rude.
I don’t mine regular phone calls but fuck video calls. I only ever do those if I am far away and haven’t seen my parents in a long time. Also fuck spam callers in general and hope they all get throat cancer for being leaches on society.
huh. i have somehow managed to instill within myself a penchant for unambiguous specificity in response to this question before this ever became a problem for me.
"Are you busy?"
"I am not available for any communication at this moment except for textual.
I anticipate my response time shall be approximately between 30 and 300 seconds."
"yes unless it involves beer"
I hate typing on a phone and I love the opportunity to knock a conversation that would've happened over 2-4 hours in 2 minutes.
No, you must refuse to talk to anyone on the phone like a good little autistic person with phone anxiety.
I get time anxiety instead. So many misunderstandings chatting back and forth and fuck typing on a touchscreen in general.
You definitely miss a lot when you can't hear tone. It is hard to detect emotions when texting and this can definitely cause misunderstandings.
I am old school so to speak because I was around during the time of pagers before cell phones. Texting through pagers was the old technology and making a voice call through a cell was the new technology.
Obviously texting has it uses, but it will always feel a step backwards from voice calls for me.
When they are concise and with purpose , phone calls are great. But I have so little patience to draw it out into an hour-long affair. And even less for video calls, because then I can’t even be tidying up or doing anything while it happens
