If the work is not obvious, it's almost certainly not important. If you can't communicate, changing where people are located won't help. Please don't lock me

Please don't lock me into a room to stare at you while you slowly gather your thoughts. My time is important. Gather your thoughts and then present them. Don't make me babysit you.
- whatever1 4y agoIf work is obvious then I don’t need to pay one 6 figures to do it. Or to put it better, if work is obvious, someone has already done the work for you
- vorpalhex 4y ago> if work is obvious, someone has already done the work for you I wish that was true. A lot of work is obvious but undone. A lot of issues go unresolved or are chalked up as "unimportant". Let me use your product for five minutes and I will give you the work that needs to be done.
