And meetings that should instead be:
- A Slack message
- An email
- An update to an issue/ticket/PR comment
e.g. you don't need to send me a meeting invite for a meeting that starts in 15 minutes so that you can tell me that you've created a new issue for a bug. Just create the issue and assign it to me, and I'll see it when I'm free to do so.
- Cthulhu_ 5y agoI once got called a minute after someone submitted a ticket or sent me an e-mail just to ask if I had read the ticket / e-mail. Maddening.
- lostlogin 5y agoCompany policies cause these sorts of things. “I’m going to open a ticket after this call…”
- ianai 5y agoYou might be able to get around that by being highly responsive to new issues/tickets. Immediately email or phone the person to say you got it. They're likely using a meeting to force you to acknowledge their issue because otherwise it could or will go unnoticed.
