If I'm heads down with something, I don't check my Slack/Discord... if I'm not, I have the bandwidth to chat. Sometimes people do just want to say hi.

Thanks for phrasing it this way! I mentioned it elsewhere in the thread that I already disagree with “sharing” this website but it was from a vague perspective that it’s “rude”. This gives me a stronger point to make about it.
- bluefishinit 3y agoThank you for your thoughtful responses! A lot of my managerial style has been tuned for remote work and the #1 thing I try to stress is trust and tolerance. It's easy to take things the wrong way when remote or cut people less slack. Remote teams work much better with trust and flexibility at their foundation. Being nit picky is very corrosive and stress inducing, especially in a remote environment.
