I hear a lot of people express this sentiment, and I honestly don't fully understand the frustration.
Why do you have to wait for them to type out the real message? Is there some social/messaging etiquette that I'm breaking by ... read and get back to them when I have time?
- notJim 6y agoThey've already potentially interrupted you by sending you that "hi". But the "hi" contains zero content. And worst of all, they often wait for your reply, which means you have to actually do something to get them to tell you what they wanted to tell you.

I'd rather see something like: hi - can you please approve this ticket 123 hi - URGENT the website is out can you please check the DB hi - do you want to come to the bar tonight with the team If you just say "hi", I dont know which one its going to be. Put it in one line I know whether to pay attention or do later.
