  > I have some coworkers who I used to be able to just walk next door and talk to. Now I ping them on Teams and they might not respond for hours. I've found that team members who did that were actually interrupting those coworkers. It takes time to digest questions and comments. Now those coworkers have an opportunity to respond with a fully reasoned discussion instead of being obligated, by a verbal conversation, to respond immediately without fully thinking. ...unless they just don't monitor their work communication channels when they should be available to that. But that's a different kind of problem.
