You're joking, right? I'll print your chat history of a single "hi" and that'll be all the evidence I need to clear my name. That print-out is going on my wall afterwards. You're funny.

You're funny. Counterpoint: > Director, HR. First interaction with this user. > 2:30: "Hey, this is a matter with urgency. Got a second?" > missed call at 2:33pm > 2:45: "Hey, I've reached out to your manager Taylor J. to resolve the matter."
- oauea 6y agoHey, you took my advice! You specified that the matter had urgency! Good job!
- eganist 6y ago> Hey, you took my advice! You specified that the matter had urgency! Good job! No, not at all. You requested a description of the topic. Urgency, whether explicit or implicit, is always there when someone requests a synchronous conversation. Edit: as a reminder, > If it's urgent then you should probably take a few seconds to explain why. Sorry you misinterpreted. Urgency is not "Why," and my example mentioned urgency explicitly without "taking the time to explain why." Gaslighting someone in a discussion makes me less inclined to communicate. Wish you the best.
