Did you see the end part of my comment about how I know other people feel differently? Your comment does not make me the same allowance. Which is exactly the kind of self assured interrupter I really don't like to work with, and which is easier to avoid when working remotely. To me, it is just rude to interrupt people unless they explicitly communicate that they don't want to be interrupted. But again, I recognize that others don't feel this way, and I try to self select into teams where that isn't the norm.
- jpcfl 5y agoI don’t understand your point and I’m not sure how I could possibly interrupt you in this format of communication.

- sanderjd 5y agoI'll try to be more clear. Say we're working together. You're saying that the default should be that you can interrupt me at any time for an interactive conversation. I can override that default by saying explicitly, "hey please don't interrupt me for X period of time". I prefer the opposite default, where you would not assume I'm interruptible any time I haven't explicitly said that I'm not. Whereas I said in my comment that I understand that some people prefer to work the opposite of my preference and I just prefer not to work with them, your comment is pretty clear that you think your way is best for everyone. I don't think that's right. That's what I was trying to say.
